Which of the following is NOT a type of pain compliance?

Pain compliance techniques are methods used to gain control over a subject by applying varying levels of pain or discomfort. The focus is on creating a physical response that encourages compliance. The types of pain compliance mentioned—touch pressure, stun, and motor dysfunction—are all active techniques designed to elicit a specific pain response that can compel the subject to comply with an officer's commands.

Touch pressure involves applying pressure to certain points on the body that are sensitive, causing irritation or pain. Stun techniques are used to temporarily incapacitate a subject through a jarring or shocking action that induces pain, while motor dysfunction consists of techniques that impede the subject’s ability to move effectively, generally through a painful joint manipulation or strike.

Pressure release, however, does not fit into the category of pain compliance, as it refers to techniques that relieve pressure or tension rather than inflict pain. Therefore, it does not serve the purpose of coercing compliance through pain and is focused instead on easing discomfort. Thus, it is not considered a technique of pain compliance.
