“Being touched and caressed, being massaged, is food for the infant; food as necessary as minerals, vitamins, and proteins” ~ Frederick Leboyer

Studies show that massaging your baby can provide lasting benefits for both parent and child.  Proper massage can stimulate proper weight gain, improve circulation and create a lasting bond for you and your baby.  At Loving Touch online, you can find dozens of reasons why baby massage is crucial to child development.

The wonderful people at ecostore USA recognize this and have provided us with an all natural, plant-based massage oil that is easy to apply and non-greasy for your child.  Studies conducted at the Touch Research Institute indicate that the use of oil had a better response than not using oil.   Ecostore combines relaxing Lavender, Jojoba and Olive oils to nourish your little one’s skin and help prevent rashes.

I’ll admit I’ve been a little selfish with this one.  Not only do I believe infant massage is important, but so is Mommy massage and I’m basically constantly begging my husband to practice the art form on me.  The ecostore USA leaves my skin feeling so soft and healthy and I don’t have that slimy ‘I have to hop in the shower’ feeling afterward.

My little man is teething and has been so uncomfortable of late that he especially welcomes any soothing caress.  Every night before bed, we help him to relax by using the ecostore USA baby massage oil.

Only one day left to enter my Cool Mom Guide Goes Green Giveaway, where you can get this oil as part of the 7 piece baby care line ecostore USA is offering.  Be sure to enter to win!
