Benefits of massage for children

[Micho]

Hi Everyone-

I would just like to comment of how beneficial massage is for children as well as infants. I am a Girl Scout Leader with a group of eight 5-year olds and we have been lucky enough to have Tina Allen visit one of our meetings. She taught the girls how to tell a story and do a massage circle as well as the girls bringing in dolls and stuffed animals to massage. You would be surprised at the wonders this does to the girl's behavior. They were all interested in learning and it changed the whole atmosphere of the meeting. If you are a Leader, Teacher or just a parent, massage is a great tool for relaxation in children.

Thanks,
Micho

Hi Micho,

It was great to come out and play with the kids. What a great group you have there - very spunky!

Anytime you want me to come back just let me know. I have some new massage stories to teach the girls that I am sure they will love!


Say "HI" to all of the girls for me!

Wow! What a sweet idea!

How old were the girls?

Hi Doula Karena,

The girls were all about 5 years old when we started, but I have since visited the meetings a few times and shared new stories with the girls. And of course, they've made up some of their own as well. The kids are great fun and they really love the massage stories!
