Massage Therapy for Children
Massage therapy has been found to be very beneficial for children. Promoting relaxation and engaging the parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) nervous system, gentle massage can help a child experience better sleep, reduce anxiety and improve attention at home and at school. A massage treatment before or after sports activities can also prepare a child for the next big game or relax and soothe tired, achy muscles from the previous one.
We enjoy teaching parents how to use massage techniques with their children at home! Please give the office a call if you’d like to learn more about massage for your child or set up an appointment.
