More about the benefits of Infant Massage Instruction.

You should always learn infant massage with a qualified instructor.

Corinne Mist offers both individual (or private) and group instruction, the fee being the same. We believe that whichever is best for you is the better option for your infant.

You can receive instruction in the warmth and comfort of your own home at a time to suit both you and you infant.

If you prefer a group instruction, this can also be at your home, or that of a member of the group.

Massage can take place weekly, or every few days. Take a look at the benefits and you will realise just how valuable this skill can be!

There is a range of physiological and psychological benefits associated with Infant Massage Instruction.
