Cuddle Therapy
Cuddle therapy is a physical touch-based therapy which aims to and has been scientifically proven to, lower cortisol (stress) levels while increasing production of oxytocin and serotonin (our happy hormones). As a professional cuddle therapist, I offer a safe, healing space for you to be held in, not just physically but emotionally and spiritually too.
These are fully clothed, platonic, sessions of consensual, healing touch that are centred around a code of conduct which both myself and clients agree to maintain throughout. Initial consultations, intentions and boundaries are discussed at the start of every session and are tailored to offer the right support and touch for you.
No two sessions are the same because they are lead by you, the client; they may consist of hand holding, cuddling in seated or laying positions, talking, eye gazing or even just sitting shoulder to shoulder.
Being cuddled by a stranger, even if they are a professional, can feel daunting but I strive to build a trusting working relationship between us to support you in feeling comfortable and safe enough to be held in a way that promotes healing and a sense of well-being.
If you'd like to discuss what a session might look (and feel) like for you? Drop me a message, let's connect!
Reiki
Reiki is an ancient Japanese method of healing. The word Reiki means universal life force energy; you may have also heard it being called Prana or Chi.
TAs a Reiki Master, I channel this energy through your energy field and Chakras. If our chakras are blocked or out of alignment then the energy can’t flow properly. This is where we start to feel unbalanced and signs and symptoms such as anxiety, dis-ease or physical conditions may present in us. Reiki sessions allow natural healing and balancing of these energies. It is important to understand that reiki is only channelled through me, I am not giving you my energy and I can not control where it goes; reiki finds its way to where it is needed and always acts for your highest good.
After our initial consultation, you’ll usually lay, fully clothed, on your back on the therapy bed; you can lay on your front if you prefer. If you find laying down uncomfortable, reiki can be given while you are seated, this will be discussed during your consultation. With gentle ambient music playing in the background, I’ll invite you to close your eyes and relax. I'll use light touch at various points on your body (or hands slightly above if you prefer) to channel and balance the energy. At the end of the session there will be an opportunity to discuss anything that came up during the session. You'll leave feeling relaxed, calm and centred.
Contact me if you'd like to discuss or book a reiki session.
Cuddle Puddles
A cuddle puddle is a gathering of individuals who want to experience the contact and connection of non-sexual touch with others in a safe space. A place to hold and be held in a nurturing environment free from discrimination or judgement, to be seen and to be vulnerable. They can be very soothing, healing and also very fun! As the cuddle puddle facilitator, I divide the session into two parts; the first involves discussion and some exercises that help us understand and explore boundaries and consent. We’ll have a short break and then the second half is our time to get cuddled up either in one big group, small pods or just one to one. There is absolutely no obligation to cuddle, touch or be touched during the puddle.
