About Baby Massage
Baby massage is a wonderful way of spending quality time with your baby, bringing many immediate and long term benefits for both you and your baby, and is also a great way to meet other parents.
I will guide you through the massage sequence created by Vimala McClure, the founder of the International Association of Infant Massage.
What are the benefits of baby massage?
For baby:
• Relaxes baby, aiding improved sleeping patterns
• Relieves excess wind and colic
• Stimulates the digestive system, improving constipation
• Improves circulation to baby’s hands and feet
• Organic vegetable oils used during massage keeps skin moisturised
For you:
• Helps you to read your baby’s communication signals and better understand your baby
• Improves bonding with baby
• Improves self-confidence in handling your baby
• Great opportunity to meet other parents
• Relaxes you and can help to reduce post-natal depression
Who is the course suitable for?
Baby massage is a relaxing and fun class for babies of all age, from birth to crawling, but you and your baby will get the most out of the course if baby is about 6 weeks of age or older. Mums and dads are welcome to attend each week.
The course is suitable for all babies, particularly those who suffer from tummy problems; are "fussy" babies; those who have difficulty settling and going to sleep; premature babies; and babies who suffer from colic.
