Baby Massage 4-Session Course
This is the “5-star” of baby massage learning and experience!
The course aim is to empower you to discover and develop baby massage practice which you can take home with you. I can start you on your journey of treasurable, magic moments of bonding and relaxation with your baby that you can continue from the early days through to toddler days and beyond.
You will also accumulate a “tool bag” of natural remedial baby massage techniques to offer your baby whenever you think s/he requires extra support for their health, including for colicky / digestive issues, winding, teething, colds, congested sinuses, general immunity-boosting strokes (lymphatic drainage) and “sleepy baby strokes” that can help aid sleep.
Upon completion of the course, you will be fully equipped to develop your own, safe and enjoyable Indian-inspired baby massage “recipe” of strokes and practice tailored to you and your baby.
The course sessions offer you this learning in a professional yet relaxed and personal environment (classes are small, max. 6 parents and babies).
As a trained baby yoga teacher, upon request, I can also introduce you to some basic baby yoga movements to incorporate into your practice.
To help clients continue baby massage practice after the course, I invite you to feel free to contact me for any follow-up, ad-hoc advice, refreshers and tips on baby massage as you and your baby grow together.
