Experience the benefits of baby massage in a calm and caring environment.
Baby massage is gentle, rhythmic stroking of your baby's body with your hands using organic sunflower oil, or your baby's own moisturiser if preferred to help your hands glide smoothly over baby's delicate skin.
Each week will concentrate on a different area of the body, so come week four, a full body massage will have be created.
As part of your massage routine, we will gently manipulate your baby's ankles, wrists and fingers whilst singing nursery rhymes to make it more fun and reassuring for your baby.
The soothing strokes of your hands stimulate the production of the feel-good hormone oxytocin in you, your baby. Oxytocin is the hormone that gives you that warm, loving feeling when you hold your baby close or breastfeed them.
Benefits include;
Stimulation (of all the big systems: circulation, digestion, respiration, immune, skin, language, nervous)
Relaxation (releases stress, produces calming hormones, helps to regulate sleep patterns)
Relief (sinuses, growing pains, teething, colic, constipation, excess mucous)
Interaction (bonding, communication, eye contact, one to one activity). I
