Welcome To ICN Body & Creative Therapy Clinic
“The human touch is that little snippet of physical affection that brings a bit of comfort, support, and kindness. It doesn't take much from the one who gives it, but can make a huge difference in the one who receives it.” “Nothing eases suffering like the human touch.”

Nothing is so healing as the human touch.

According to research, touch deprivation could lead to different kinds of issues like low self-esteem, attachment issues, social anxiety, etc. The tender touch of others is now known to boost the immune system, lower blood pressure, decrease the level of stress hormones such as cortisol and trigger the release of the same kind of opiates as painkilling drugs. Premature babies gain weight when rubbed lightly from head to foot. Massages reduce pain in pregnant women. People with dementia who are hugged and stroked are less prone to irritability and depression.

Pottery Therapy is one aspect of working with clay that doesn’t get the attention that it deserves. Pottery can help with stress reduction, enhance mood, boost confidence, and relieve pain. Pottery work creates a calming experience resulting in lowering stress levels, blood pressure, and heart rate and regulating breathing. Clay can also be an effective tool to reduce anxiety, promote a positive mood, enhance creativity, healing and induce self-expression.

Art Therapy

The Creative Process in Art Therapy often contributes to a sense of clarity for the individual, leading to greater self-awareness and understanding. Therapeutic art often brings emotional expression, improvement of self-esteem, and management of conflict.

Quiet The Mind, And The Soul Will Speak.

If you just sit and observe, you will see how restless your mind is. If you try to calm it, it only makes it worse, but over time it does calm, and when it does, there’s room to hear more subtle things – that’s when your intuition starts to blossom and you start to see things more clearly and be in the present more. Your mind just slows down, and you see a tremendous expanse in the moment. You see so much more than you could see before.- Steve Jobs
