I practise ethical touch therapies in accordance with the Cuddle Professionals International Diploma. I am a warm, open person who believes in the therapeutic power of touch, which became especially evident in Covid times.
If you are anxious, lovely, sad, bereaved, ill, depressed or just a little low; the hormones released during therapeutic touch can help you to better cope with life and even thrive.
I provide a safe space to listen to how you are or what is going on in your life in a friendly way. We agree which form of touch suits you best, it might just be a resting of arms, rather than a proper bear hug. You need to feel comfortable.
Each session is bespoke to your needs. I do recommend 6 sessions, as regular platonic touch will bring a deep sense of healing and connection.
Sessions are £80 an hour
(Payment must always be 24 hours in advance of appointment)
The map shows my approximate location. I am within easy reach of anywhere in Dorset, or Yeovil/Southampton for example.
What to expect
Through email, we follow a protocol of form completion to ascertain whether the sessions are suitable for you. Then there is an initial £20 consultation where you can ask any questions and go through what will happen in detail, and see whether you are comfortable and are adhering to the Cuddle Professional's guidelines. All appointments will be relaxed and have a nurturing tone. There will be space to chat or just to nourish yourself in quiet comfort.
The sessions will incorporate some breathing techniques to relax, talking and possibly hand or arm touch or close proximity. Other ethical forms of platonic touch can be used, to work out what level provides most comfort for you.
