The practice of Infant Massage is a unique and wonderful way to deepen the bond you have with your child. It provides countless physical and emotional benefits for both you and your baby. Massage will help relieve your gassy baby and improve his/her sleep. Regular massage fosters emotional, physical, and mental well-being, calms anxieties, and contributes to healthy body image.

In each class you will learn...

  • simple and effective massage techniques from Swedish Massage, Reflexology and Traditional Indian Massage, a special massage to relieve gas and colic
  • ways of communicating with your pre-verbal baby
  • relaxation techniques, for both you and baby
  • how to adapt your massage as your child grows
