Baby's First Massage
Infant massage provides parents with the tools to communicate and bond in a special way with their newborn. You will learn a massage technique that enhances the parasympathetic nervous system functioning which aids in healing, digestion, elimination, rest and growth. The stroking from head to toes is done with gentle pressure, gliding over the skin without dragging on the skin. This is a great way for parents to get to know and to create a special bond with their newborn.
