The Benefits of Infant Massage

There are so many amazing benefits of infant massage, as silly as it may sound. I massage all three of my kids and have since birth.

Some people swear by infant massage – similarly, like those who swear by getting their baby’s spine adjusted at the chiropractor. Pair massage with essential oils and the whole family can benefits from it’s calming effects and  other health benefits.

The benefits of infant massage include:

  • Bonding
  • Calms & Relaxes
  • Alleviates Colic*
  • Promotes Restful Sleep
  • Supports Immune System
  • Healthy Weight Gain*
  • Promotes Healing of Prematurity*
  • Relieves Gas Pains*
  • Builds Self-Esteem
  • Builds Self-Soothing Skills*
  • Develops Learning & Neuro-Pathways*

Infant massage is easy and free! By incorporating coconut oil and essential oils, some of the benefits listed above will become enhanced.

Using Lavender promotes a restful night’s sleep.

Using Thieves* supports the immune system.

And Peace & Calming or Gentle Baby helps calm and relax both mom and baby.
