Supportive Massage for Your Baby’s Health
For Babies ages: 2 weeks – 1 year old, 60 minute sessions offer time to discuss your goals, learn more about your baby, practice massage and benefit from the relaxation and stress relief that it offers you as well as your baby. During each class you will massage your own baby while your teacher demonstrates on a doll. Take three 1-on-1 sessions to cover massage for the full body, digestions and cold/illness support for a package fee.
The benefits of infant massage are vast for your baby and also for you. For your baby they include: lowered stress hormones; sleep support; supporting digestion, increased healthy weight gain; calming sensitive babies; healing from challenging births or NICU / hospital stays; healthy attachment and supporting cognitive, language and physical growth for your baby.
And for parents, infant massage offers lowered stress and increased bonding, decreased stress + anxiety, and bolstering confidence in parenting.
