Baby Massage

A new baby - how exciting, how wonderful, a real life miracle…. Yet the first few months after having a baby can be very challenging and can be both mentally and physically tiring. Massage can help parents to understand and bond with their new arrival and bring a sense of wellbeing, fulfilment and contentment to both parent and baby.

Why should I learn baby massage - what are the benefits?

Massage has been a valued part of childcare in many cultures for hundreds of years. Baby massage has a positive impact on parents and your relationship with your baby. The simple routines shown to you as parents and key carers by myself, Nicola Swinnerton of Baby BODYTECHNICS, helps you to express love for your child through touch as well as relieving stress and helping to resolve minor ailments.

  • Encourages bonding
  • Helps to develop confidence in handling your baby
  • Encourages feelings of comfort, enjoyment, trust and security
  • Can help to reduce parental stress
  • Provides quality time, especially for working parents
  • Provides a period of mutual enjoyment
  • Helps increase awareness of the baby as a person with individual needs
  • Provides a form of loving communication

    • If you would like to make an individual or group appointment please call me, Nicola Swinnerton, on 01752 205895 or 07966235143. Remember - we are all very tactile creatures and touch is the simplest form of communication for your baby to understand. This does not diminish with age and we continue to feel the power of touch throughout our lives. Take the time to massage your baby and the rewards are great - for you both. Enjoy!
