Massage
of new born babies has a
prominent place in the tradition of ayurveda.
Massage can be done from birth and should
continue daily for about eighteen months.
Afterwards it can be done on alternate days.
However, massaging infants is a most delicate
and precise art and should not be done without
training.
Massage enhances the circulation,
facilitates in the removal of toxins, and aids
the digestive system of the baby. The simple
manipulation of the arms and legs engage and
exercise the muscles, giving strength to
support the body. The daily application of oil
nourishes the skin and helps to prevent
infections and dryness. Head massage during the
first six to nine months is most beneficial to
the infants brain and eyesight as it energizes
the cerebrospinal fluid and strengthens the
nervous system.
Besides giving strength and
support to the body, massage also brings
calmness, peace and emotional satisfaction.
Massages to a baby paves the way for a dynamic
loving personality in society.
