Baby massage is one of the most important
skills parents can learn. It enables parents to readily
bond with their babies, promote their babies’
emotional and physical development, uncover potential
problems and treat minor ailments. Being massaged makes
babies relax and cope better with stress, improves their
muscular coordination and flexibility and helps them
straighten tightly flexed hands and legs.
And who better to teach parents how to acquire these
essential skills than Peter Walker, the UK and world’s
best-known baby massage teacher.
In this exciting revised edition of his best-selling
guide of 2000, he not only includes vital new sequences
essential for very young babies, but demonstrates them
in a special waterproof covered stand-up edition. The
book can thus be placed at eye-level making its photographic
step-by-step sequences easy to master.
