 Even if the instinct and the family are helping her, the neo mother feels the inevitable feeling of not knowing exactly where to put her hands. Really starting from the hands, children's massage can be a valuable ally to have a deep contact with her son and to better interpret his signals and needs.
Ancient Indian tradition, recently discovered by the West, it is now supported by scientific research and clinical evidence, and in Italy it is spreading through the courses of the Associazione Italiana Massaggio Infantile (AIMI, Italian Association Children's Massage).
If it positively interferes on the serenity of the mother, children's massage also brings great benefits to the wellness of the child , and to the link between them.
In particular, if practiced since the birth and during the first eight months, it infuses a sense of security and of self-esteem in the baby.
Through the touch, the mother can transmit his infant all the love and warmth that surround him, and thus make him confident and free to express himself.
During the period of weaning then, massage helps baby to win the stress that comes from the change, confirming the stability of the bond with his parent.
But not only.
Helpful to reassure the child during the typical illnesses of childhood (constipation, abdominal colics, meteorism), massage positively acts on the rhythm sleep-wake.
The infant, having signaled in his own way the permit to be massaged, sometimes will cry during the session.
The mother, accepting also that manifestation of her child, will make him even more confident.
Lullabies and nursery rhymes can help the baby to perceive the experience as playful.
Teachers AIMI also encourage fathers to practise the message to identify himself as an integral and fundamental part of the new household and to let the infant feel his presence and his love.
Always we of Italy Family Hotels believe in the power of cuddles! We are waiting for you for a regenerating stay, full of affectionate gestures for neo mothers, fathers and children.
