Parent training – Infant massage
One touch at a time
Give your baby security, closeness and love through soft and conscious touch. During this course in infant massage, you as a parent will learn techniques that strengthen the connection and deepen the interaction between you and your child.
Infant massage is the loving touch of a baby’s skin, the body’s largest sensory organ. It is not a treatment, but a moment of presence, contact and calm – completely on the child’s terms. Through the massage, you develop your ability to read your child’s signals and build security in your relationship.
During the course you will:
- Learn the different strokes of the massage
- Deepen interaction and communication with your child
- A quiet moment of presence, just for the two of you
- Community with other parents in a safe environment
- Sandwiches and drinks at each session
Some parts of the massage, such as the abdominal massage, can help to relieve stomach aches and gas.
