Infant Massage Lessons
Infant Massage Lessons
Infant massage is an age-old practice used across many cultures to nurture connection, support development, and promote relaxation.
Modern research supports what parents have long known — loving, intentional touch can positively influence bonding, sleep, digestion, and emotional regulation in babies.
Infant massage was introduced to the United States in the 1970s by Vimala McClure, founder of the International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM). Her work was inspired by observing the powerful role of touch in supporting infant well-being.
I offer a three-class series (60 minutes each) where parents and caregivers learn a gentle, structured massage routine to use at home. During these sessions, you will learn how to:
soothe and calm your baby
support digestion and relieve gas discomfort
encourage better sleep
strengthen parent-infant bonding
read your baby’s cues and respond with confidence
Infant massage is not about perfection — it is about connection. These lessons create space for you to slow down, tune in, and build a strong foundation of trust and communication with your baby.

“After taking the infant massage series from Heather I can calm my baby down by massaging her feet. I can see this creating a strong bond between me and my daughter. ”
Infant massage instruction is scheduled as three 60 minute classes where the parent/caregiver is taught to massage their baby.
