First Time Mum's Chat

Using Baby Massage to Help With Postpartum Depression


Listen Later

During the life of this podcast, I've had a number of guests who have shared their postpartum journeys and how they have struggled, as well as professionals who specialise in helping moms through their postpartum struggles.


In this week's episode I'm sharing the ways in which baby massage can help moms through postpartum depression and anxiety.


You'll hear me:-

  • Explain how baby massage doesn't just help your little one but it helps you as well.
  • Talk about why the many benefits of baby massage relating to areas including improving their sleep and the stimulation of their digestive, immune and other systems helps make life easier for you and better able to cope with postpartum challenges.
  • Share details and findings from two studies done in the United Kingdom and Norway which showed evidence that baby massage was a positive influence on moms suffering postpartum depression and anxiety.


And much more....
