Infant Massage: FAQ

 
  • How is IM different from an adult massage?
    • It's not so different, actually!​ Infant massage is an enjoyable, relaxing time for you and your baby- akin to what you would experience at a spa or with an adult masseuse. Bear in mind, IM is dictated by your little one- he/she may need breaks or snuggles throughout. You use the same pressure as you would apply when testing a peach!
  • I'm expecting- can I learn IM before I give birth?
    • Infant massage is great to learn at any point, including the prenatal period. Sessions can be adapted with an infant massage doll and initiated on your little one when he/she is ready.
​
  • Do I need to have any equipment?
    • Each session includes your free choice of oil (coconut, olive, or grapeseed to name a few) and a book of strokes/presses​ for you to keep. Consider using a boppy or surface where your baby is most comfortable.
​
  • Where does the instruction take place?
    • In the comfort of your own home, if preferable. Sessions can also be conducted in a group setting- Mommy/Baby groups are the perfect opportunity to learn this amazing skillset and meet other parents. â€‹
​
  • Can my partner/grandparents etc. learn too?
    • Most definitely! â€‹Sessions are best when limited to 2 caregivers; however, we can incorporate family members over several sessions and make sure they receive the appropriate instruction. 
​
  • How much does it cost?
    • Prices vary depending on private/group instruction choice, as well as the number of sessions purchased. Class Packages (2 or more) are offered at a reduced rate- we also offer gift card specials. Please see "Classes and Private Consultation" section to receive more information.
