After experiencing, for over 12 years , the benefits of massage on children with special educational needs, babies and young children I wish to share my practice, by supporting and teaching you how to massage your children. Firstly it is a great way to express your love and care for your baby or child, creating an incredible bond between you. Infant and child massage has many added benefits including: improving infant weight gain (especially in premature babies) , aiding digestion, improving circulation, easing teething pain, relieving colic and help sleeping. Additionally, massage has been proven to stimulate motor development, which improves flexibility in developing muscles that make motor skills possible. Also improves cognitive development by increasing the brain function resulting in increased alertness as well as speed and accuracy. Calming and comforting massage reduces stress hormone levels which not only reduce feelings of anxiety but contribute to a healthier immune system.
