Baby Care: the benefits of baby massage

The benefits of massage for the little ones

For very young children, even for newborns, massage proves to be a type of contact that is fundamental to their well-being and to the consolidation of their balance. Even for the little ones, like adults, the massage always has a relaxing and calming effect and accompanies children towards a more peaceful sleep and towards greater inner balance. In addition to being very pleasant and relaxing for the small child, the massage is able to promote the correct development of nerve cells and motor skills, as well as strongly consolidating the emotional bond with mom and dad. Getting your baby used to regular massage sessions is a really good idea: it will help him grow, giving him safety and protection that only skin contact can transmit.

How to perform a relaxing massage for your baby

The child is very attentive to external stimuli so he will immediately sense if you are nervous or agitated: in these moments avoid approaching him for a relaxing massage. Likewise, if the child is too agitated, wait for him to calm down spontaneously. Choosing the right moment is very important to enhance the benefits of your caresses. For example, to avoid all the moments after a meal, if the baby is very sleepy or if he is sick. When you realize that your baby is calm and that this could be a great time for a soothing massage, you can lay him on a warm blanket or soft towel during the summer. Create a calm, relaxing atmosphere around him and make sure that the room is warm enough.
