Touch is a primal need and the most important way of communication between parents and their new baby. Nurturing touch communicates love, the main ingredient for physical and emotional well-being. The one-to-one interaction of baby massage promotes health on all levels - psychologically, emotionally, developmentally and physiologically. It helps raise a child's sense of worth, which will help their self-esteem as they grow. Through touch, babies will develop confidence and independence, as they become children.

Touch is the first of all the senses to develop, (as early as 12 weeks gestation) and in this stage of life babies are capable of taking in a tremendous amount of tactile information. This sensory awareness provides a foundation for much of their early learning, enabling them to thrive, and providing a feeling of safety and security that will support its whole life.

Physically, all the major systems of the body are stimulated when massaged. It affects the blood lymphatic circulation, muscle tone, joint mobility and skin texture.

Massage is particularly effective in relieving the discomfort of gas and colic by stimulating the gastrointestinal system, preventing indigestion, constipation and diarrhoea. By helping eliminate toxins, poor appetite and listlessness will improve.

A wonderful opportunity for both parents to have quality one-to-one time with your baby.
