Dr. Frédérick Leboyer, French gynecologist, brought the “Indian baby massage” to Europe in the 1970s. In India, the baby massage is a fixed point in the daily routine and is lovingly passed on to the next generation.
“The baby massage is a silent dialogue of love between a mother and her baby.
The rest of the movements is almost like a ritual - a dance.
Her controlled power expresses tenderness and dignity at the same time. "
