Water has an amazing effect on the nerve and muscular system of infants.
That is why this procedure is especially recommended for newborns and toddlers with hyper- or hypotonic muscle, preterm infants, anxious and babies who do not sleep well.
Boston Infant Trainer can teach a newborn to swim under water freely and with pleasure. We work with babies starting from 1 week old and up to 3 months old. The active session is supposed to begin just after the healing of the umbilical wound (but, in any case, only after consulting the pediatrician and with their approval).
If a baby is born before the term, he or she may have an apnea. Therefore, for such a newborn it is very important to pass a test for this disease and get pediatrician approval. All contraindications for an infant massage is also an excuse not to start swimming and diving session.
