Baby & Child Reflexology

Baby & Child Reflexology

If you would like a very soothing, nurturing and gentle treatment for your baby or child, well try Baby & Child Reflexology, which can be performed from birth. It can be performed any time of the day and when given at bed time, can help promote a more restful sleep.  It takes 25-30 minutes with baby relaxing within minutes of the treatment starting. They let us know when they have had enough !

This “Positive Touch” treatment is safe, natural and an enjoyable for the health and wellbeing of babies and children.   Infants use touch to learn about the world around them and it nurtures bonding between them and their parents.  Mothers and babies who have had a traumatic birth will find this treatment very comforting.

Some benefits to giving your baby reflexology are;

• Helps to treat Colic and Reflux
• Can help to relieve Constipation
• Releases Serotonin to help the child cope with stress and anxiety.
• Will relieve symptoms of growing pains.
• Acts as a pain reliever and a sedative by releasing endorphins into the bloodstream
• It can improve weight gain especially in premature babies.
• It will boost your child’s immune system.
• Toxins in the baby’s tissues can be moved through the lymphatic system.
• Sleep patterns can improve
• Helps with Teething

Please note; a baby or toddler cannot receive reflexology for 48 hours after having vaccinations or if they have an infectious disease or acute illness.

Babies and children are more than welcome to my treatment room for a reflexology treatment or a series of treatments.  Or parents and caregivers can learn this beautiful therapy to give to their own loved ones thus improving the bond between them and their babies and children.
