CHILDREN'S MASSAGE

Touch is the first sense to develop in humans. It is essential for our health and well-being. Children are provided with positive tactile experiences and healthy touch by their caregivers are more likely to grow up with a healthy self esteem, a sense of appropriate boundaries and long lasting intimate relationships.

Children suffer from stress just like adults: starting a new school, friendships, divorce. Stress hormones can be reduced in children by receiving a massage. They will feel happier, calmer, and have improved sleep.

Infant's and children's massage sessions should last for no more than 15-20 minutes. Any longer can be overstimulating or even uncomfortable for them.

It is advisable for children and infants to receive their massage by their caregivers. Teenagers however, usually do not want to be massaged by their caregivers and can recieve their massage here with us.

Classes for you and your child are offered by Kneadful Touch on a regular basis in small groups of four caregivers with their four children/infants at a time.

Classes usually run on weekends for 3 hours. The cost is $100 per adult/child.
