Infant Massage Workshop
with Lorrie Garcia, LMT
Relax your baby and promote good health with Infant Massage. It’s more than an ancient technique for taking good care of your baby, it is invaluable as a way to nurture and soothe your baby. It can help improve sleeping and eating habits, aid a colicky baby, and increases bonding. And, it's something that any caregiver can learn how to do. Infant Massage instructor Lorrie Garcia, LMT, teaches a 2-part hands-on workshop for parents and caregivers. Infants who received massage therapy versus those who were rocked experienced greater daily weight gain, more organized sleep/wake behaviors, less fussiness, improved sociability and soothability, improved interaction behaviors, lower cortisol and norepinephrine levels and increased serotonin levels. (Report from The Touch Research Institute of the University of Miami School of Medicine).
