In the US S&M always puts you at risk of assault charges, because it isn't possible to consent to "serious bodily injury" and "serious" is interpreted as "pretty much any injury at all". People don't worry about it much, because if it's consentual then the law will never be involved and it doesn't matter. This seems to be the same deal.
