Infant Massage can help families connect more closely with their baby and understand their baby's cues and communication. At the same time, it gives parents an interactive practice that improves their baby's sleep patterns, helps alleviate postnatal depression, enhances interaction, and reduces stress for both parents and baby. There are three \ main categories of benefits for the baby: interaction, stimulation, and relaxation.A Certified Infant Massage Educator (CEIM)/ Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI) is trained to help parents position the baby for a successful interaction. Private sessions and group classes are available to assist the parent in developing this exchange. The instructor helps to create an environment that promotes the development of loving bonds, good communication, and a time of relaxation.
