Baby Reflexology

Baby Reflexology

Reflexology is a method of massage that relieves nervous tension through the application of finger pressure either to hands, ears, or feet.

Reflexology is extremely relaxing and can be enjoyed by both adults and babies.

Babies enjoy the relaxing effects of reflexology just as much as adults do. As babies feet are so small, the procedure for Baby Reflexology can be carried out once, or several times and the entire session can last as long as 5 to 15 minutes.

Of course, Baby Reflexology is applied with lighter, gentler pressure than reflexology on adults would be applied.

Benefits of Reflexology for Baby

Benefits of Baby Reflexology include:

• Encourages muscle co-ordination
• Promotes sleep
• Stimulates Baby’s immune system
• Helps circulation
• Aids Digestion
• Encourages Bowl Function
• Nourishes the skin ( when using massage oil for babies skin, I recommend Mustela Baby Skin Care Massage Oil, which is Ph balanced to nourish the delicate skin of a baby)

Baby Reflexology is a perfect way for both mom and baby to share moments of intimacy, physical contact and positive interaction.
