The Power of Touch, baby massage guide by House of Mammas
Carmela with her baby
A NOTE FROM CARMELA

Baby massage has always been one of my favourite rituals with my babies.

A sacred little moment after the bath to slow down, reconnect and simply be together.

This guide is my invitation to pause with your baby, even if it's just for a few minutes. Because a baby who feels calm and loved, and goes to sleep with a happy heart, is more likely to sleep well.

Inside the guide

Over 40 gentle massage techniques and movements, each with simple steps, illustrations and explanations.

Relaxing and strokes for sleep illustration

Relaxing & strokes for sleep

Long, rhythmic strokes for the legs, feet, arms, hands, face and back, including foot massage inspired by reflexology. Deeply calming, and a beautiful last step before pyjamas.

Teething and jaw relief illustration

Teething & jaw relief

Gentle circles on the cheeks, jaw and around the mouth and ears to relax a clenching jaw, plus hand and foot strokes for when your baby doesn't want their face touched.

Colds, coughs and congestion illustration

Colds, coughs & congestion

Back, chest, face and foot strokes drawn from lymphatic massage and reflexology, to help a bunged-up baby relax, breathe more calmly and loosen mucus.

Wind and constipation illustration

Wind & constipation

Clockwise tummy strokes that follow the natural path of the gut, plus reflexology foot strokes, to help move trapped wind along and ease constipation.

Movement and play illustration

Movement & play

Tummy time, stretches and playful games that build strength in the neck, back and legs, help pass wind and get your baby ready to roll, crawl and walk.

BonusSoothing a crying baby illustration

Soothing a crying baby

Why evenings can feel so hard, what to check first, and my calming toolkit and soothing holds for when your baby just can't settle.
