This is a process which you as the parent become the therapist, you learn the skills to carry out the therapy in the privacy of your own home. The techniques are learned over of periods of two or four sessions. Here you learn the skills and leave having gained the knowledge that will help to alleviate the stresses for both you and your baby.

This is a wonderfully nurturing way to relax as you are carrying out the massage baby can keep eye contact which in turn allows the baby to feel safe and secure.

• It can be carried out by Mum, Dad and Grandparents
• It is an opportunity for Dad to have a special time when the massage is carried out, bath time, before dressing for bed, morning.
• Help to release endorphins which are natural in the body and release pain for example colic, eczema, nourishes skin and build up our immunities
• It induces a relaxed night sleep

This is just a small fraction of what can be obtained with a baby massage. You in turn learn to carry out the therapy, so it is readily available to you and baby if and when you choose.
