Course for new parents   

At my course in infantmassage you will learn how you can give your baby massage. Parents with their babies will meet me about 5 times during 1-1,5 h. each time. You get instructions how the massage can work out for you and your baby. It's never to late to start giving massage to your baby, but to participate is best before the child starts crawl. Both mom and dad together with their baby are welcome.

Some babies get well on massage at it's home ground. For instance older babies and very sensitive babies get easy disturbed on other babies in the group. Therefore I even give individual instruction of massage in the home.

Parts of the course contents:

• Step by step introduction to the massage

• Theoretic background about infantmassage

• Massage and bodylanguage

• Massage towards stomach-ache

• Older children and massage

• Relaxing exercise

• Individual instruction

• Different discussion subject's (t ex babies and crying, stress/relaxing)

Some parents comments on the course:

We got to knew each other better + he got a nice relaxing time in the eavning's that make him calmer befor sleep.

It becomes a special contact during massage.

(To think about: the baby can be newborn to before starting crawl. 0month - 6month)

Things you need to bring in the course

It's very important for the baby that you bring your own towels that smell like at home and the baby's own blanket. Maby even a small toy. Good to bring is some extra napkin/diaper, change to yourself and the baby, beacouse it's always a risk to give the baby massage when it's not having a napkin/diper (if it's ok for yourself).
