Oil massages are soothing and essential for newborns, and you may enjoy them as well. Oil massage is a time-honoured practice that has endured for centuries. Oil massage moisturises and promotes development while protecting your baby's soft, delicate skin. Your baby's bones and muscles are relaxed, enabling restful slumber. Some massage oils are also rich in nutrients, which helps you provide your baby with the best care possible. The oil is not necessarily safe just because it is "natural." The components of massage oil are equally important. While massaging your baby, make sure you have used the right oil. Selecting the best baby massage oil makes sense because different oils have different properties. Selecting a safe, gentle baby oil free of hazardous ingredients like sulphates, harsh chemicals, mineral oils, and parabens is something we recommend. However many natural oils are often suitable for a baby's sensitive skin. Here is the list:
Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Castor Oil, Sesame Seed Oil, Olive Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Ashwagandha Oil, Turmeric Oil, Camphor Oil, Brahmi Oil, Basil Oil and Cinnamon Oil - these naturally occurring oils help strengthen your baby’s skin, act as a natural moisturizer and promote growth.
