Infant Massage One Day Class

  • Grow, A Family Boutique 2885 Jones Franklin Road Raleigh, NC, 27606 United States (map)

Special One-Day Class is here! Learn all the massage strokes you need in one extended class.  We will cover legs, stomach, chest, arms, back, face and if the babies are in a good mood, we will go over gentle movements and a colic/gas routine. 

During our extended one-day class, you will learn basic infant massage techniques to perform a full body massage for your baby.  Each stroke is designed to provide the physical touch that is crucial for babies, as well as an amazing way to relax and reconnect with your baby after a long day or a sleepless night.   Research shows that regular massage of babies can promote bonding between parent and child (of any age), helps infants align their circadian rhythm (sleep/wake cycle) of that of their parents, and stimulates the release of oxytocin for both the baby and the person giving the massage.  Each class will include an introduction and demonstration of all strokes and gentle stretches plus effective techniques to help relieve gas and tummy issues, followed by a group discussion of various topics associated with touch and massage therapy.  Handouts for families and a small bottle of massage oil will be provided for parents to take home to ensure that massage becomes a part of each family’s routine.  Please join us for this amazing opportunity to learn how to introduce massage into your infant’s life, and provide them with lifelong benefits of nurturing touch.
