What is Baby Reflex?

Baby reflex is a reflexology treatment specifically designed for babies and toddlers. It is aimed at training parents in special reflexology techniques to use on their own children. The techniques are simple to learn and easy to adapt for individual needs.

Babies naturally love to be touched and this wonderful treatment helps parents bond with their babies, whilst given them the benefit of this is amazing complementary therapy.

This gentle and non-invasive treatment can be used on children from birth to 2 years.

What are the benefits?

Baby reflex can have excellent results in helping to calm baby and to assist him or her develop their own natural rhythm, in turn helping to establish good routines, in particular sleep patterns.

It can also be effective with helping to soothe the discomfort experienced with colic, reflux, teething, aiding digestion, constipation and asthma.

What happens during a session?

The aim of baby reflex is to give the power to the parents.

When you sign up to baby reflex you are signing up for a training course, where I will give you the skills to use baby reflex on your child. The course will run over 3 consecutive sessions lasting approximately one hour each and they will be divided into 3 topics:
- sleep and comforting
- feeding and digestion
- well-being

The training course will involve you working on another adult in the group to learn the techniques and then they will swop to work on you. At the end of the session you will have the opportunity to use the techniques on your baby.

The reason you do not learn on your baby is that the treatment is very powerful and stimulating therefore it is vital we do not over stimulate your baby.

The sessions can be delivered in different ways:

• on a one-to-one basis either in your home or in my treatment room
• group sessions in your own home (this is ideal for ante-natal groups where all parents know each other)
• mixed group sessions in my home (this will be on a Monday morning at 10am and ideal for individuals to get to know other parents).

These courses will start on the 1st Monday of the month and run for the following 3 Mondays. Each session will last for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. The minimum to run a group session is 2 and maximum is 4 babies.
