Infant or Baby Massage: What is it, and why should I do it?

Infant (or baby) massage, also known as Nurturing Touch, fosters deep connection and understanding between parent and baby. It promotes interaction, stimulation, relief, and relaxation for the baby, while also benefiting the parents through bonding, improved communication, and reduced stress. Techniques like the I Love U stroke and Swedish milking stroke offer specific benefits for the baby’s well-being.
