Relief of discomfort Massage releases both oxytocin and endorphins and therefore can assist in relieving discomfort from teething, congestion, colic and emotional stress, 2 oz, (Natures Inventory)
1. Relief of discomfort Massage releases both oxytocin and endorphins and therefore can assist in relieving discomfort from teething, congestion, colic and emotional stress.
2. Speeds myelination of the brain and nervous system Skin stimulation speeds the process of myelination of the brain and nervous system therefore improving brain-body communication and enhancing neural-cell firing.
3. Relaxation and enhancement of neurological development Massage provides both stress and relaxation for an infant, both being components of optimum learning conditions. During massage an infant may experience both stress and relaxation. Increased circulation, the air on their skin, the stimulation of stroking, are all potentially stressful to a newborn, yet these are balanced with the reassurance the parent’s voice, odor and touch provide. This kind of balance is essential for the learning process. Stress causes the pituitary gland to produce ACTH (Adrenocorticotrophic hormone). Experiments where laboratory animals are given ACTH show growth of millions of new connecting links between the neurons. This is what enables the brain to process information and, applied to infants, this process aids in converting new and stressful situations into something that is recognized as predictable. If not balanced with relaxation an overload of stress can result in the decrease of sensory intake, something that is essential if infants are to reach their full potential.
It is estimated that stress plays a part in 60-90% of all illnesses so it may follow suit that infant massage, which provides the balance of relaxation will assist infants in learning to effectively cope with stress and, based on this above estimate may in fact be healthier because of it.
4. Sleep Some infants sleep for longer periods following massage and appear to have longer periods of deep sleep. This seems to please most parents and is often the reason they seek an infant massage course.
5. Stimulates the vagus nerve
6. Teaches infants that touch is a form of expression.
7. Helps tone muscles and aids growth
8. Enhances the bonding process
9. Increases infant’s body awareness IMIS instructors encourage parents to name body parts during massage. . This simple practice teaches infants games, words and speech. In addition to this, body awareness can assist newborns who are still adapting to an environment without the boundaries of the womb.
10. Strengthens the immune system A study conducted at the Touch Research Institute in Miami, Florida, found that massage resulted in a significant increase is Natural Killer Cell numbers. Natural Killer cells are a group of white blood cells that kill many types of abnormal cells. This is thought to have particularly positive implications for children suffering from HIV and abnormal cell growth.
12. Increases oxygen and nutrient flow to the cells
13. Increases circulation
14. Improves sensory awareness
15. Helps encourage midline orientation This assists with coordination and balance.
16. Parents feel more confident in their new role... ...knowing that they can do something themselves to enhance the health and development of their child.
17. Massage provides quality time with a working parent
18. Increases the parent’s ability to help relax their child in times of stress
19. Is relaxing and fun for parents
20. Can involve the father... … to assist in alleviating the possible feelings that they are being left out. (Particularly common when the mother is breast-feeding).
21. Enables parents to be more receptive to their baby Interpreting the infant’s body language during massage is certainly a part of this, but on a medical level, parents who massage each day are more likely to notice a change in their child’s physical condition. For example, they may feel a strange lump that may have gone un-noticed for a period of time with an infant who was not receiving massage.
22. Infant massage is fun! We have heard this time and time again. Watch a parent massage their child – you can definitely see the enjoyment being reciprocated between the two. The feedback we receive from parents and infants (through body language) indicates that they are as eager as each other when it comes to be time for their daily massage routine.
