Product Description

Synopsis

Back in print by popular demand! This book explains the simple but highly effective techniques of baby massage through the author's photographs of a young Indian mother, Shantala. As we watch her communicate her love and strength to her children through the primal language of touch, we learn how in the weeks and months following birth we, too, can use the flowing rhythms of the art of baby massage to communicate our love and strength to our infants.

By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Mr Leboyer has used just enough words and photographs to expose the traditional art to a parent who is concerned about his fragile newborn.
All the picture sequences showing the baby massage are to the point and only focus on their context.

Mr Leboyer's way of empathizing a newborn is very unusual and worth reading.

Wonderful book 28 Dec 2010
Format:Paperback
This is a truly beautiful book by the man who transformed attitudes to childbirth by empathising with the baby's experience. This book is a continuation of his work to make childbirth and very early childhood a safe, fulfilled and transcendent experience for both baby and mother.

love the book 19 Sep 2011
Format:Paperback
I wanted something I could learn by myself to massage my baby, this is just the job. A lovely book, and my baby loved being massaged, always calmed him. He is now 16 months and still relax when I do this massage.
