Baby Massage
When your baby was born, one of the first things you did was to touch him. Perhaps he was born onto your stomach or put straight into your arms, even if he was whisked away for tests or to special care you probably still stole a few precious seconds to stroke his face or hold his fingers.
Touch is an instinctive form of communication between you and your baby from the moment he is born and continues throughout childhood and into adulthood. If your child is distressed or in pain you naturally comfort, stroke the afflicted area, perhaps rock the child, speak softly to them until they are calm or the pain is gone. (no matter what the age!)
Baby massage is simply a method that helps to reinforce the natural power of touch. It is an ancient art that has been used in many different cultures to help with a variety of physical and emotional needs and to promote relaxation. When you massage your baby it helps you to understand his subtle non-verbal language and develp your ability to understand him, develops trust and security which helps to build a happy and confident relationship with your baby for the future.
Baby massage builds on the human need for touch and studies have proven that babies who are touched or massaged from birth develop more quickly psychologically, emotionally and physiologically.
