“All children need a
human touch."
Brigitte
Massage is beneficial at any age but because children are still developing it can be especially helpful for them. Touch is the first sense to develop in humans. It is essential to our health and well-being. Babies have been known to fail to thrive and even die without an adequate amount of physical contact. All Children need a human touch.
“However beautiful the body is,
you should occasionally
touch it with heart.”
Brigitte
"Every child, no matter the age, should be massaged on a regular basis." Massage for children offers a variety of health benefits. It is human nature to touch as a way of showing love and affection. This touch stimulates the body in positive ways to help it grow and develop. Children who learn healthy views of touch and are provided with positive tactile experience by their caregivers are more likely to grow up to be adults with healthy self-esteem, a sense of appropriate boundaries and long-lasting intimate relationships."
