Benefits of Infant Massage - The Power of Touch for Mama, Papa, and Baby

According to Infant Massage USA, "infant massage is an age-old tradition that has been passed down from mother to daughter since the beginning of time." There are many benefits of infant massage, including both the baby and parents. 

For babies, infant massage provides an endless list of benefits:

  • promotes better sleep

  • relief for teething pains

  • improves skin condition

  • facilitates body awareness

  • improves blood circulation

  • and so much more!

For parents, infant massage allows for the ultimate bonding experience:

  • parents feel more comfortable and confident in their ability to care for baby

  • parents learn to understand and respond to baby's cues

  • parents learn techniques to comfort, calm and soothe their babies

  • provides an additional avenue for close and nurturing contact
