It seems like a pathetic situation when so many people are so lonely and alienated that it gets labeled pathological and people are seen to be in need of "therapy." We need to try and create a world where more people can connect with others and feel safe and cared for.

There's science that would agree with it working, there's just a weird social stigma around cuddling.

@Quizzical: Indeed, and skin to skin contact boosts oxytocin levels, which improves mood and greatly alleviates depression in most.

I wouldn't find myself really comfortable doing it unless the cuddler was someone I'm really connected with. But yeah, sounds nice, at least for those who are open to it.

If it works than I am all for it. I know how good a hug from the right person can make me feel :)

I had seen a video about it, I would not do it myself but if it becomes a normal regulated business that is safe for all involved and the customer feels they are happy with the service they pay for then why not
