Book Synopsis

A hands-on guide to baby massage by a chiropractic doctor who has treated thousands of babies and young children.

Massage is a natural extension of touch, the most vital and rewarding physical communication between humans of all ages.

Written to show parents how to perform simple massage techniques on their infant children, Dr. Paul Staerker's easy-to-follow book explains the effects of touch on a child's emotional development; how to calm a screaming baby through massage; the acupressure points to treat specific conditions; and how to treat growing-up problems with simple massage.

Enhanced by full-color illustrations and photographs, this practical and informative guide is certain to bring a lifetime of rewards.

Paul Staerker, A.A.S, B.Sc., D.C. has worked in the United States, Europe, and Australia, where he has successfully employed massage as an extension of the manipulative therapy used in his profession.
