Research Abstract |
1. This study examines the effects of baby massage from both physical and psychological perspectives in mothers who give massages and infants who receive them. 2. We conducted a study to examine the effects of baby massage on mother-child interaction using objective indicators in mothers and their 3-month-old infants. The following results were obtained. (1) The results suggested that for mothers, giving massages to their infants promotes stress reduction both physically and psychologically. (2) For infants, it was suggested that tactile stimulation received from their mothers reduces stress, and possibly promotes the developement of language (e.g., speaking) and motor function (e.g., physical movement).
