Infant and Pediatric Visceral Listening & Intuitve Touch

Pediatric Visceral Listening & Intuitive Touch offers a range of benefits for infants and children, making it a valuable addition to their overall health and wellness routine. Here’s how regular pediatric massage can positively impact your infant or child:

  1. Promotes Relaxation and Reduces Stress: Massage helps soothe the nervous system, reducing stress and anxiety levels in children. It can help them sleep better and feel more rested, aiding in overall emotional regulation.

  2. Enhances Immune Function: Regular massage has been shown to boost the immune system by increasing the activity level of the body's natural killer cells. This helps children combat illness and maintain better overall health.

  3. Improves Circulation and Healing: Massage stimulates circulation, which increases oxygen and nutrient flow to cells. This enhanced circulation can speed healing from injuries and increase overall vitality.

  4. Supports Developmental Growth: Pediatric massage can help improve motor skills by promoting muscular development and coordination. It also supports sensory integration, which is crucial for children's development, especially in those with sensory processing disorders.

  5. Alleviates Pain from Growth and Activity: Children experiencing growing pains or discomfort from sports and physical activities can find relief through massage therapy, which helps alleviate muscle tension and pain.

  6. Boosts Emotional Well-being: The gentle, nurturing touch of massage promotes a sense of well-being and security, which can be particularly beneficial for children with emotional or behavioral challenges.

  7. Improves Concentration: By reducing stress and increasing relaxation, massage can help children focus better in school and other activities requiring sustained attention.

  8. Enhances Body Awareness: Regular massage can help children become more attuned to the signals their bodies give them, promoting a greater sense of body awareness and appreciation.

  • We noticed our infant twins had preferred directions when turning their heads. One would only turn to the right and the other to the left. As we navigated the healthcare system, we also searched for alternative ways to support them. Mary Jo came highly recommended for crainosacral massage. We are so thankful for her support throughout our journey. Our sessions with Mary Jo were healing for our family. Her space is relaxing and welcoming. Her presence is calming and professional. Our babies have made great gains and we are forever grateful.
