Cockatoo cuddles

Hello! To all those who have cockatoos and/or cockatoo experience, maybe you can help me understand.. I follow a few cockatoo pages and I have found that the owners cuddle their birds touching the birds's body and wings. I always thought you aren't suppose to touch a parrot's body and wings as it triggers a hormonal response. Is this not true for cockatoos?
