Benefits of Infant / Baby Massage

 

There are many benefits of learning to massage your baby. For example:

  • Massage improves the blood circulation and can improve the condition of your baby’s skin.
  • Helps regulate sleep.
  • Soothes digestion and colic.
  • Helps development of coordination through body awareness and sensory stimulation.
  • Strengthens immune system.
  • Makes baby feel loved!

Not forgetting Dads!

  • Research shows that baby massage increases bonding – this is wonderful for fathers, especially those whose baby’s are breastfed, as regular massage can give you your own special bonding activity.
