Ask HN: Law enforcement and Non violent arresting protocols

It is clear that the way law enforcement all over the world bind people and render them immobile(by handcuffing and pinning people down)is really not the most harmless protocol. Is there any other way to do it? Right now it involves 1. laying prone 2. Hands cuffed behind 3. Hauled upright 4. Made to move. This doesn’t seem right. There has to be a better way using physics? The human body is not designed for this..esp if one is obese/overweight or inflexible.
