Infant massage is a great way of bonding with your new Little Lamb. Just as massage therapy relaxes us adults and has health benefits, it has the same effect on little ones. Not only is it wonderful for baby’s well-being, massage is a great way to start a bed-time routine. (*If you choose the scented Baby Oil it contains 100% pure natural essential oils but they are not organic.)
Baby oil contains organic sunflower oil because “[s]unflower oil, like other oils, can retain moisture in the skin. However, it may also provide a protective barrier that resists infection. Studies using sunflower oil have been conducted involving pre-term infants that are often susceptible to infection due to their underdeveloped skin. Research suggests that pre-term infants with low birth weight can benefit from sunflower oil skin treatments. Infections decreased by 41% in infants that received a daily skin treatment of sunflower oil. The sunflower oil provided a protective barrier against infection that was not otherwise present on the infant.1” It also contains organic jojoba and organic sweet almond oil both which absorb easily into the skin and are great oils for massage!
