Infant Massage |
What is Infant Massage?Touch is the first and most vital sensory experience. Research shows that our earliest experiences with touch can effect every aspect of our lives. Nurturing touch (or the lack of it) can impact the way we think, feel and relate to others. Infant massage uses gentle, tactile stimulation and loving verbal communication to deepen the relationship between parents and their baby. It is a shared experience, done with the baby not to the baby. The strokes used can be both stimulating and relaxing, depending on each baby's needs and developmental level. It is easy to learn and a pleasant method of positive interation. It's a life time skill investment!Learn to massage your baby with Australia's only truly international infant massage organisation.

It is wonderful to see how receptive Charlotte is to touch and massage in just a matter of weeks. She gets excited at the beginning of a massage now.
We look forward to many years of massage and can't wait until she can learn to massage us! |
