Infant Massage is the process of rubbing an infant’s muscles and stroking the infant in a manner specifically designed for them. It is an effective, simple, and powerful tool that can help with relaxation of tight muscles (hypertonia) or normalisation of muscle tone for babies with weak muscle tone. Infant massage is performed by Beata who is professionally trained and certified infant massage therapists. That type of massage provides many benefits for the baby:
| • Relaxation of tight muscles (hypertonia)
• Normalisation of muscle tone for babies with weak muscle tone (hypotonia) • Less constipation and discomfort provoked by gas, colic, congestion or teething • It promotes sounder and longer sleep • It decreases the production of stress hormones • It helps baby learn to relax. |

When you give your baby a massage, you’re actually stimulating her central nervous system. Studies have shown that massaging an infant can reduce crying and fussiness, help her sleep more peacefully, and alleviate common wail-inducers like constipation and colic.
