a mother with a question.

Hello these are great tips I just wanted to know, do you have pictures of how to do this? Like the milking or effleurage movements?

Effleurage massage
by: Nat

Effleurage massage means long stroke movements which you usually do with a flat hand or fingers. Sorry don’t have any pics for you, but…

Here is an informative video that I found…



And for a better idea on movement of the hands with effluerage movements...

Helpful Guide

Here is a very helpful guide with good photo's to illustrate. Hope it will give you a better idea.

*(The "milking" technique is also called the "baseball hold" sometimes, as you hold baby's leg the same way you would hold a baseball bat and then move your hands together in opposite directions, squeezing lightly. This guide shows it too.)
