These lessons are suitable once your baby has had their 6/8 week checkup, after which time the course can begin whenever you feel you and your baby are ready. It is covered over 4 sessions of 1 hour and can be tailored for you and your baby and any concerns you may have or issues you may be experiencing at the time.
Focussing on relaxation for your baby and yourself and enjoying uninterrupted time to bond and learn together, this 4 week course will teach you how massage can help you manage with everyday concerns and conditions that most babies and parents will encounter. These include sleep issues, teething, tummy trouble, colds and congestion, as well as massage strokes to help relax and strengthen your baby’s muscles as they grow. Plus, during each session you will also learn reflexology techniques. Carried out on baby’s feet, with no need to undress, reflexology is perfect for those times that a massage may not be possible, or your baby may not be in the mood, ideal for in the middle of the night.
Escape the hustle and bustle of life, to a warm, cozy, private space, a calm oasis where you will have nothing and nobody else to focus on but your baby and yourself. Being baby led, we will work at a pace that works for you both, so if baby cries, needs a cuddle, a feed or nappy change, that’s absolutely fine. If baby should fall asleep, I have a spare massage doll which you can practice the massage strokes on.
You will receive a bottle of organic massage oil to use during the lessons and after each session I will email you notes and videos of the massage strokes we have covered, for you to carry on massaging at home and share your new experience with baby’s dad, grandparents or other carers.
Each week we will recap what you have learned previously, until you feel happy and confident carrying out baby massage and reflexology!
