‘baby touch’ is a unique combination of baby massage, stretches, reflexology and shiatsu exclusively created by mumabuba to provide you and your buba with many more benefits than standard baby massage.
As well as providing a wonderful bonding experience, there are many benefits of ‘baby touch’ for your buba. Whether it is providing deep relaxation for a good night’s sleep, providing relief from wind or teething, or stimulating general physical development, you can be sure that ‘baby touch’ has so much to offer. Young babies cannot take medications if they feel unwell, but the good news is that there are natural, complementary ways that you can help relieve pain and discomfort, ‘baby touch’ will teach you these skills.
‘baby touch’ is delivered through a four-part workshop, which will teach you all of the techniques you will need to provide your buba with a wonderful, relaxing and therapeutic experience that they can enjoy for many years to come. Each ‘baby touch’ workshop is 1-hour in duration, and will have a maximum of 6 mums and babies in each workshop.
Also, unique to mumabuba – part 1 of baby touch can be taken prenatally, ensuring that you and your buba can enjoy the benefits of ‘baby touch’ from day 1.
