BENEFITS OF INFANT MASSAGE

Relaxation and Relief

Sleep is probably at the top of your list right now. Studies show that infants who are regularly massaged, assuming the touch is nurturing and compassionate, sleep better. It makes sense. When we are massaged, we sleep better, right? This is because massage signals the body to release melatonin, a chemical that helps regulate our sleep/wake cycles. Massage also causes our bodies to release oxytocin, our body’s “love” hormone, which helps us experience pleasure, decreases pain, and reduces stress and anxiety. As a result of feeling happy and content, babies sleep longer and sounder. It’s a win-win situation!
