INFANT MASSAGE

The effects of infant massage are immediate, but they last a lifetime ...

Benefits of infant massage

Through Infant Massage we develop further our means of expression, which is part of our very first ‘Language’- Touch. During the course of the day, the massage offers a period of time in which the parent is fully concentrating on the infant/older child and conveys to him/her, in a very direct way, love care and respect. It enables parents, in a pleasant way, to further the development of the child and at the same time strengthen the parent/child bond. And of course, massage is fun!
