Infant Massage
Infant massage is a form of massage that is done on an infant by his or her parents. Generally speaking, infant massage is a technique that combines physical, kinesthetic stimulation, administrated in a purposeful, chronological application. In infant massage, the technique is much different from the one used with adults: It is not so much manipulative as it is communicative.
