This practice is born in the South Indian region Kerala.
The Baby Massage is a dialogue with the hands, a message of love from the mother to her child.
It is a very gentle type of massage,like a soft but stimulating caress with wide and deep gestures.
Harmony, communication and tenderness.
It promotes the child development and strength the relationship with the parents. Improves the interaction between the mother and the child as well as the sleep of the newborn baby,
it stimulates the nervous, respiratory and digestive systems and softens the skin. We use sesame, hazelnut, sandalwood oils, or special ayurvedic oil for baby.
28 days (one lunar month on Earth) is the time that a newborn baby needs to get use to the outside world. After this period of time the "Shantal" Massage becomes an awareness of its own body. Practicing the "Shantala" Massage you are nourishing your child and releasing this marvellous force called "Life" which is sleeping inside him.
