Baby Massage: Benefits for parents
13:13 (GMT+2), Wed, 20 July 2011
Regular massaging of your baby can do the following for you:
Parents react happily to a baby's positive response. This starts a cycle that leads to better bonding and a joyful relationship between parents and their children.
Parents have more confidence in handling their babies.
Parents feel they are being proactive and doing something about certain problems. This results in more relaxed parents and a reduced anxiety-crying-tension cycle between parents and their babies.
Promotes increasing sensitivity to babies' natural rhythms, and their likes and dislikes.
It is relaxing and enjoyable.
