The Power of Touch. Infant massage is a simple, gentle process proven to help ease colic, digestive problems, fussiness and a host of other common discomforts in babies. Doctors worldwide have recognized the positive impact of massage on infants' well - being. In her ground- breaking research, Dr. Tiffany Field, Director of the Touch Research Center at the University of Miami , discovered that: "Massaged babies are more active, gain weight faster and become more efficient. It's amazing how much information is communicable in touch.”
Infant Massage: The Power of Touch offers a contemporary approach to this ancient art. Ines Benedict, a licensed neuromuscular therapist, leads this step-by-step lesson in baby massage techniques. Special strokes enable caregivers to tailor the massage to each child's individual needs, and an enlightening question-answer session with a registered nurse and childbirth instructor with the Better Birth Foundation further addresses a multitude of questions about infant massage.
This DVD is a unique parenting resource designed to teach safe, effective massage techniques while strengthening the bonds between babies and caregivers, and contributing to the development of secure, self-confident children.

Here is what American Health Magazine says about Infant Massage:
Massaged babies gain weight as much as 50% faster than unmassaged babies. They're more active, alert and responsive, more aware of their surroundings, better to tolerate noise, and they orient themselves faster and are emotionally in control.
