Like adults, babies can benefit from massage and even enjoy the process! Massage is effective in helping infants with wind, colic, constipation, and reflux. Baby massage soothes your infant, relaxes them, and helps ease their gas and other issues without having any adverse effects. Knowing how to administer an effective baby massage is a great skill to have for any parent or caregiver.

While adults can medicate newborns for a gassy tummy, the discomfort and pain it can cause will likely keep their little one up at night, resulting in a restless sleep for everyone involved. A massage for a gassy newborn can make all the difference — but for a baby tummy massage to be soothing and effective, parents need to use the correct techniques.
