In a Kalma baby yoga and massage class we talk of touch being the first sense we acquire. Many successful relationships are built upon it and touch is our first language. For going babies it is a way of communicating their language, and a way parents give comfort to them.
Release the feel good hormone
Kalma baby helps to develop the parent child bond through touch in our baby yoga and baby massage classes. Touch also helps to increase the bond between each other. Physical touch activates the brain’s orbitofrontal cortex, linked to feelings of reward and compassion. Studies that show that a simple touch can trigger the release of oxytocin, our ‘love hormone’. Our skin contains receptors that directly elicit emotional responses, through stimulation of erogenous zones or nerve endings that respond to pain.
Studies also show it boosts early childhood development immensely. With over 700 babies born inside the uk each year introducing baby massage or baby yoga from early age could have profoundly positive effects on their health and well being. Our mission at Kalma Life is to make yoga and massage more easily accessible to the children of the UK through franchise growth.
Research has shown that skin-to-skin contact between a baby and parent can be a benefit to both. Consistent emotional engagement with infants can speed their development and recognition of self.
