You ask yourself, “Why do children need massage?” Children have a high need for tactile stimulation. If you are not doing it already, healthy touch like hugging is a very important key in your child’s development. Honestly, children need more touch than you can imagine. Your child’s brain is developed through tactile stimulation, pressure, balance, position, light, sound and smell impulses and information from muscle joints. To help lead your child to normal functioning you have to provide the right amount of interaction. This interaction includes massage, touch therapy and rich tactile experiences like rolling, jumping, twirling, crawling, running, swinging, and climbing. Normal play encourages sensory impulses and provides nourishment for the brain.
