It has been well documented how important touch is to the well being of humans, especially for the newborn baby.  The birthing process is hard work for all: mother, baby, dad and family.  It is wonderful to practice and develop a loving touch and massage routine to use daily to enhance the bonding process.

Since 90% of diseases are caused by stress, massage can help your baby let go of tension and relax, therefore helping to boost his or her immune system.  Infants who are massaged show improved sleeping patterns, are calmer and more alert when awake.  

As part of the introductory class, parents are encouraged to attend together. They are welcome to start with their child, but  infant dolls are available until parents feel comfortable with the touch they have developed.  A DVD is available for purchase as a home resource.  Follow up instruction is always available at the spa with the instructor as needed.
