Cuddle Therapy at the CICN Body Therapy Clinic is a professionally guided, trauma-informed safe-touch experience designed to restore the body’s sense of security, trust, and emotional regulation.

Many people live with touch deprivation, not because they do not desire closeness, but because their bodies learned to associate touch with obligation, anxiety, neglect, or emotional risk. Over time, the nervous system remains guarded, hyper-independent, or emotionally starved. Cuddle Therapy gently re-educates the body that safe, consensual, non-sexual touch can exist without fear or expectation.

In a strictly ethical, clearly bounded therapeutic setting, clients experience warmth, presence, and attuned connection that helps calm the nervous system, lower stress hormones, and activate emotional safety. This process supports healthier attachment patterns, emotional softening, and the capacity to receive care without guilt or self-protection.

Cuddle Therapy is especially supportive for individuals healing from emotional neglect, relational trauma, prolonged loneliness, burnout, or sexual disconnection. It is also beneficial for high-stress professionals and corporate clients whose lives demand constant emotional containment, leaving little room for rest or human connection.

This is not intimacy for pleasure.
It is touch for regulation, repair, and nervous system healing.

Here, the body learns again that closeness can be safe, respectful, and restoring and that receiving care is not weakness, but resilience.
