The massage of children

Children need milk, yes.
But even more,
They need to be loved
And to receive caresses.
- Frédérick Leboyer

The great adventure of birth starts with the pain of childbirth and usually this experience is painful and traumatic for both the mother and the child. The daily massage of newborns, helping them overcome the trauma of the birth and early months of life, helping them not to feel isolated, lost, alone in the new environment in which they find themselves.

We must speak to the body of new-born children rocking them, caressing them, supporting them, with massage and love. Children need to hear the voice, the smell, the warmth of her mother and people who take care of them.
The contact through the hands, eyes, skin, heart, develops even more intense communication that exists naturally between parent and child.

This intuitive communication that occurs even when the children do not speak, will be a wonderful memory that will remain indelible in the minds of parents and children being useful in the future to address the difficulties of life.

The massage of children runs with oil or other natural oily substance, it can be done every day since the birth for 10 minutes up to a maximum of about 20 minutes, preferably in the morning.
