Baby massage has been practiced in India , China, Africa and
many other countries from ancient time
but it is recently discovered that this beautiful ritual provides (or at least
rediscover) incredible benefits of mom-baby bond. In recent years, massage
comeback. Today, all moms practice massage.
The concern of all new born babies’ mothers resides
(rightly) in the choice of product to use to massage baby. This is
understandable as whatever product one select to massage a baby is going to use
every day and sometimes for several years .That is why moms always afraid to
make mistakes!

Understand your baby
skin:
First, be aware that your baby's skin is not the same as we
do have. It is thinner, more sensitive and does not manufacture protective
lipid film. The use of fat instead of a moisturizer is best for a smooth
massage. The vegetable oil and coconut oil which we put in our bathroom should
be kept for us only, even if we find it extra ordinary. This is because baby
skin is extremely sensitive .It is better to prefer oil which is created with
advance technology keeping all such points in the mind.
The wrong oil would clog the baby pores (in addition, they
contain toxic substances for the body so say, ‘A BIG NO’ too ordinary company’s
oil). I highly recommend you to buy”special baby" oil which created
according to your baby’s soft and supple skin in the mind. If you select the
right oil you will have the great pleasure and privilege to have exactly what
there is in it!
Keep in mind that there is no good or bad oils, they are all
good! However, they do not have all the same properties and the same effect on
the skin of our babies.
Olive oil: It
must be obtained through a first cold pressing, is the traditional oil massage
for children in the countries of the Maghreb. There, the child is massaged from
his birth to his/her 4-5 years, sometimes with a mixture of crushed pine bark
and pumpkin peel. I challenge you to find the corner of the market. Olive oil
is also present in the limestone liniment oleo if you choose to massage baby
with this magical mixture your baby muscles will become strong and skin glow
healthier day by day.
The Positive Attributes:
With many virtues and properties, it is particularly rich in vitamins
and proteins. It is also soothing and antiseptic. It is recommended in winter
because its main function is to give warm. It is therefore particularly
suitable for babies under six months.
Jojoba oil: This
is the one whose composition is closest to the natural sebum in the skin. This
is also why I recommend it for oily skin.
The Positive Attributes: It is extremely nourishing
therefore recommend for babies skin having little dry.
The Negative Attributes -: It is not recommended to use
pure. So you have to associate it with another oil of your choice.
Sweet almond oil:
This is probably the most used for baby massage oil, and for good reason, this
is excellent massage oil!
The Positive Attributes: sweet almond oil is fortified with
vitamins A and E, and is recommended for dry and sensitive skin, irritation and
redness.
The Negative Attributes: Some babies have possible risk of
allergy with it but a patch test on the baby's elbow enable you to select it.
