Book Reviews of Infant Massage--Revised Edition: A Handbook for Loving Parents
Book Review: Wonderful way to soothe and connect with your child
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this book to accompany personal instruction I received on infant massage, after my son was born and we realized he was colicky. Infant massage immediately did several things:
- it helped sooth him through his discomfort
- it gave him a pleasant association with bath time (we massaged after bath)
- it gave me a wonderful opportunity to bond with my son (as Daddies can't breast feed )
I heartily recommend the book and the technique to any parent.
