Ayurvedic Baby Care – Nurturing with Nature
In Indian tradition, there was a special group of women trained exclusively to massage newborn babies — a role that held great importance in the care of infants. Sadly, this beautiful tradition is slowly dying out, and there is a growing shortage of trained practitioners in this area.
At Dhanwantri Ayurved, we have designed a scientific and authentic course to revive this tradition — teaching not just baby massage techniques, but also the broader aspects of neonatal care rooted in Ayurvedic wisdom.
Baby massage is very different from regular massage. Infants must be handled with great delicacy and care. This course covers aspects unique to newborn care such as the filling of the anterior fontanelle (talu), selection of appropriate oils, safe exercises for the infant, choosing proper clothing, and the use of beneficial herbs in bath water.
A structured 2-hour programme, delivered across 2 personalised one-hour sessions.
Theory & Practical Sessions Include:
- Introduction, benefits & contraindications of Baby Massage
- Step-by-step Baby Massage technique
- Correct oils and their selection based on the baby's needs
- Safe infant exercises and movement
- Herbal bath preparation
- Clothing and hygiene guidance for newborns
Who Should Join: New parents, soon-to-be grandmothers, homemakers, and healthcare workers who wish to learn the art of Ayurvedic infant care.
