Using massage and exercises you can fix your baby health issues.

For example, use massage and exercises for

– preterm infant;

– babies born by cesarean;

 – excitable and hyperactive babies;

 – hypertonicity or hypotonicity of muscles;

 – foot development pathologies;

 – infants with some developmental delays. Such as: days in capability to sit or crawl, have weak abdomen muscles, and muscle torticollis. In these cases, number and frequency will be defined individually.

Muscle’s hypertonicity and hypotonicity

All babies are born with hypertonic muscles. It goes away naturally, beginning with the upper limbs (about 2.5 months) and ending with the legs (about 3.5 months). Sometimes hypertonicity is delayed. It affects negatively the development of an infant because of metabolism and oxygen saturation slowing down.

Sometimes there is an opposite process – an infant is very weak physically. Baby hardly lifts their head, etc. This is a hypotonicity.

Infant massage and infant exercises will help a newborn in case of hypertonicity and hypotonicity by mean of massage and other manipulations.

Intestinal colic and baby massage

During the first few months infant’s intestines microflora is still actively developing and supplementing with new elements, Due to this, a newborn can be restless because of colic. With the help of special massage technique of the abdomen it is possible to help a baby to get rid of bloating and air congestion, which often form in an infant’s intestine. After a session of such a massage, the baby will feel better and calmer.

Gymnastics plus massage against torticollis

Quite often infants develop muscle torticollis. The reasons can be different. For instance, general muscle weakness. Or the habit of lying in a tilted position or with a turn of the head in one direction. Massage and excercises will help to eliminate the torticollis. This is easy when parents do not (snooze) lag and appeal for professional help.
