Reflexology…. for Babies & Toddlers.
To me, there is nothing more precious, than to witness a pair of Baby ./Toddler Feet.
Amazingly, babies respond more quickly to the effects of foot reflexology, because their energy flow is more easily unblocked and proper balance is restored. Also, their feet, being more sensitive - respond beautifully. Babies more readily accept support, because they don’t analyze.
Because babies feet are much smaller than an adults, all of the reflex points are much closer together, so finger movement is very minimal. Also, babies feet are not fully formed, so the pressure used – should be very gentle and nurturing. Time worked, is much shorter.
It can be used from 4 weeks onward. It is recommended not to carry out baby reflex for at least 48 hours after baby vaccinations – please enquire at time of booking. Baby reflex is a complementary therapy and does not take the place of conventional medical care or medical advice or recommendations.
Some of benefits of baby reflex include
calms and relaxes baby and parents
helps baby to sleep
helps bonding between mother (or father) and baby
aids digestion
helps discomfort of colic and teething pains
helps constipation
boosts immune system
can be given safely with baby's medicine
