Paraphilia involves unusual and aggressive sexual fetishes amounting to self-inflected pain, and harm directed towards others. Dissuading these people from such activities revolves around redirecting the unusual sexual stimulus that triggers them to more normal parameters. Orgasmic reconditioning is a form of therapy whereby the subject is initially encouraged to masturbate to their abnormal fetish. Then before climaxing their thoughts are channelized towards standard sexual triggers. The aim of this therapy is to limit the person concerned within accepted norms of sexual behaviors. The process is repeated till the individual is purged off their anomalous and, sometimes abominable thought patterns associated with sex.
