Baby Massage
For generations parents all over the world have known that the soft stroke of their hands soothes, calms and communicates their love for their babies. Now scientific research proves that massage can do all of that and more.
Baby massage brings physical and psychological benifits to both parents and babies. A course with Katie will show you how you can incorporate this joyful and wonderful healing art into your baby's life.
A five week massage course aims to show you how massage benifits children - easing discomfort, releasing tension, helping premature infants gain weight, even helping Asthmatic children improve breathing function. Each week you will receive handouts to help you with the stroke technique when you are massaging at home.
Course objectives
The course promotes bonding between parent and child and builds on the foundations of secure attachment. Both baby and parent experience a warm, friendly and fun environment with nursery rhymes, group chats and refreshments.
The gentle movements stimulate muscular development and the circulatory, digestive, hormonal, immune and nervous systems. This in turn helps to improve sleep patterns.
The techniques taught in this course can help relieve Colic, Constipation / Elimination, Digestive Cramps, Growing Pains, Muscular Tension, Teething Discomfort and Physical and Psychological Tension.
