Infant Massage. Mamayoga Workshop

Infant Massage

The infant massage is a very old tradition that has its origin in the oriental culture, and that in many cultures it is transmitted from mothers/fathers to children.

Through massage we create a bond with the baby in the first months of life. An art that helps to understand his non-verbal language and respond in a respectful way to his demands.

Studies and research reaffirm the need for nourishing tact as the fundamental basis of development in the first years of life. There are four basic benefits of this physical contact: interaction, release, stimulation and relaxation.

Some of its most concrete benefits:

  • Helps to create and strengthen emotional bonds.
  • Relieves the discomfort caused by colic and gas.
  • Helps the baby to sleep.
  • Helps to listen and understand the baby’s crying.
  • Facilitates communication between adults and their babies.
  • Strengthens the immune system.
  • Helps to mature the nervous system.

In all the sessions, there is a space of welcome, relaxation and dialogue between the families.
