Why We Cuddle
&
What to Expect

From your time with Kitten

Cuddle Therapy also known as Touch Therapy is a platonic way to produce the hormone Oxytocin which is responsible for helping us feel loved.

 

Your session can include a wide variety of elements to accomplish satisfaction for you. Based on your comfort levels we can start off slow with non invasive touch and work towards mutual intimacy. Pairing breathing exercises and guided meditation can assist in bringing you to a state where you are prepared to accept the touch and everything it brings with it.

 

We will create a space where boundaries and consent are honored at every opportunity and where we can intimately open up. Without judgements we can begin to freely accept and gift love between us because it is not enough to just receive touch. The best balance is when you are able to give it as well, I can help you be able to feel comfortable enough with yourself that you are able to.

For those of your already familiar/comfortable with cuddle sessions, or touch therapy I am happy to jump in and meet you where you are at in your journey. I am always open to new ways to intertwine.

How 
To
Prepare
For
Your
Session

For Your Maximum Comfort & Success

Consider, what you would like to get from the session? Mental clarity, relaxation, supportive comfort, affection, exposure therapy to become more comfortable with others, an Oxytocin boost to feel good, a fun new experience... These can all be achieved different ways. No judgements, I'm here to support you. It's ok if you have no clue, we can talk about what you'd like to get out of our time together. 

  • Make sure you are clean and have attended to your personal hygiene. Here are a few examples of things some people like to do beforehand : shower, brush their teeth, use mouthwash, wash their hands, put on clean socks (socks are not required)...  

  • You should dress comfortably. Loose soft clothing works really well. 

  • Use the restroom beforehand, it will help you feel more at ease. 

  • Ensure you are in good health, sharing is caring unless you're contagious.

Rules

  • We are building and maintaining a judgement free zone. This includes your thoughts about yourself. Be free and open to changing your mind about what you want and what you thought you wanted. These can often change in the moment.

  • Do Respect my privacy as I will always respect yours. All clients and sessions are confidential and to the best of my legal availability I will keep all information we share purely between us.

  • We will remain clothed at all times and hands will stay away from areas covered by swimsuits/underwear as well as above clothing.

  • You are expected to communicate any/all physical and mental issues that may be aggravated by cuddles. We need to ensure you leave better than you came.

  • Commit to being an advocate for yourself and your needs. If you are enjoying something, speak up. If you do not enjoy something, let me know. There are dozens of positions we can get into and things we can try. There is no reason to be uncomfortable.

  • There will be no physical violence or emotional manipulation. Be calm and clear in both your actions and your words.

Risks

  • Cuddles/Touch Therapy is a powerful tool but we must be very clear in that it is NOT a medical treatment, nor is it a replacement for physical or psychological therapy.

  • Kitten is not a licensed medical professional or therapist but would be happy to consult/collaborate with your medical professional if you request.

  • Kitten will strive to provide you with a supportive and loving atmosphere when you are with her however there are no guarantees of results or outcomes as far as the benefits you will receive.

  • The platonic nature of cuddle therapy is not to be confused with psychological diagnosis or therapy. Kitten will discuss things with you as a friend would, She is not providing medical advice or opinions at any point.  

  • It is not uncommon for you to feel very emotional, those feelings are valid and we have a safe space for you to discuss and explore them. Feel welcomed to voice them with the understanding that words are hard and it's ok to be awkward, there will be no judgement.

  • There is not to ever be the intentional seeking of sexual contact or exchange. This is more like friendly or familial love, a mother and child, or siblings caring for one another. Sexual arousal may occur and should not be encouraged. We can change positions, use pillows/blankets to avoid discomfort. If there is tension that does not go away on it's own we can take a break and come back refreshed. 

  • Cuddles and extended physical touch result in a natural release of the hormones oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin. These are normal chemicals produced in your brain but if you have not had close intimate contact recently the sudden flood of these can affect your mind in unexpected ways. 

  • It is possible to feel intoxicated or high by the pleasant sensations, you may also experience euphoria, bliss, and the feeling of falling in love. 

  • Kitten will remain your Cuddle Therapist, she will not become your girlfriend. The intimate nature of our connection can often cause feelings that blur the lines between professional & friend. Do not forget that you are a client and you are paying for Kittens time, attention, expertise, and touch. 

  • There is also the concern of Oxytocin levels dropping within a few days after your session, especially after long periods of no touch. It is possible to feel vulnerable, lonely, sad, longing. There is appointment aftercare available, if you start feeling like this please reach out as soon as possible.
