Is Reflexology beneficial for children and infants?
Absolutely! Reflexology works the same way in babies and children as it does for adults. As part of Jennifer’s Advanced Maternity training, she learned special protocols for babies. The treatment length is shorter than an adult treatment, lasting 45 min. Jennifer concludes the treatment by showing the parents some techniques they can try at home with their child on their own time.
Reflexology treatment for infants and babies can be used to relieve the following conditions,
as well as other common infant related problems:
Tummy aches
Positing
Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux
Vomiting
