One should remember, also, about the fact that in little-one, as in adult person in the different time there can be different mood, and therefore should be distinguished the situations, when the little-one rejects the massage because it “not the spirit”, from the physiological lack of preparation of child to this procedure. You will focus attention on the following rules of conducting massage to the breast child: Massage to the baby is done in no way in the manner that adult. Try to concentrate little-one easily, without the pressure, by tender touchs, preserving in this case with it visual contact. Constantly control the degree of the efforts applied by you. Now and then it suffices altogether only to be touched by one finger. The degree of the activity of child is different in the different time of day. For the massage it is desirable to select the time, when your little-one is least active. Furthermore, it is required that after the feeding it is past the minimum of one-and-a-half hours. Specialists recommend the making of all methods in one and the same sequence. This will help child more easily to them to become accustomed. Do not forget to follow the fact, as little-one it reacts to the massage. If you see that the procedure does not please it, you will stop. So that your hands would slide well, they were “tender” and it is warmer, before the massage (if you carry out the massage of head, then after it) it is possible to grease hands by several drops of any deodorized vegetable oil and to grind it in the palms.

In order not to wound little-one, your nails compulsorily must be cut. With the same purpose remove adornments. During the massage undesirably much to talk with the little-one or to sing to it song. Specialists note that this simply tires many children. In the opinion specialists, best anything for massage is suitable table. To undesirably use for this procedure the bed or some other soft surface. Also specialists in the massage of small children advise to cover little-one by blanket, leaving opened only that body part, which you concentrate. First, therefore little-one preserves the heat- (in the first three months of life his organism it does not possess a sufficient capability for thermostatic control). In the second place, this makes it possible to create the sensation of safety in child. Subsequently, when crumb a little grows up and becomes accustomed to the massage, it is possible simply to place by its [golenkim] to the diaper. There are contra-evidence to the massage: it cannot be made, if child is unhealthy. But if to him they made any prick, was necessary interruption for 48 hours. And one more: never concentrate fontanel on the head of little-one.
