Some Fundamental Reasons For Using Nurturing Touch & Massage
Encino, CA (PRWEB via PR Web Direct)
January 25, 2005 -- A brand new step by step guide “Swedish Child Massage – A
Family Guide to Nurturing Touch”, shows new parents and families how to give
simple massage techniques to newborns and children. The guide is launched along
with an organic Sweet Lavender Baby Massage Oil, the newest addition to the
Nicci Maternity Natural Skin Care Collection.
The guide is written by
Lena Jelveus, qualified Physical Therapist and Massage Therapist, originally
from Sweden, now living in California. She provides experienced professional
advice about the benefits of nurturing touch and how to give it. Lena and Nicola
Salter (Clinical Aromatherapist and Creator of the Nicci Maternity Collection)
have joined forces to promote the profound difference massage can bring to all
of us.
New parents especially will be delighted to discover techniques
for identifying colic, how to give gentle massage techniques to reduce and
improve colic symptoms, how to improve their baby’s sleep, and understand how
massage impacts on our bodies to bring better health. In addition, the Baby
Massage Oil, is formulated especially for babies and is made from pure sweet
almond oil, jojoba oil, vitamins A,C and E, and a tiny percentage of organic
Sweet Lavender known to release serotonin from the brain when inhaled, to help
relax and calm. Its anti-inflammatory properties may also reduce skin
sensitivities. There are no mineral oils or preservatives contained in the
blend.
From newborns into childhood, Lena explains very simply the
physiological reactions our bodies go through during massage, and addresses how
childhood massage can reduce an over fussy child’s need to cling, as well as
improve its sleeping patterns.
The guide doesn’t stop there, Lena goes on
to demonstrate how massage is even effective during the teenage years to bring
balance to the body, welcome relaxation, encourage interaction with the rest of
the family and trust.
