ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
The international classic—the ancient art described and illustrated with 70 of the author's own photographs. In Loving Hands, the renowned obstetrician uses his deep insight into childcare—as well as knowledge gleaned from traveling in India—to show how to use the flowing rhythms of the art of baby massage to communicate love and strength to infants in the weeks and months following birth. The book explains the simple techniques of the massage by following a radiant young mother as she communicates to her children through the primal language of touch and sensation. 70 b/w photos.
USER REVIEWS
"Thirty years ago I bought this book after reading Leboyer's "Birth Without Violence" and having the first birthing room delivery in my city. What a joy! I followed the beautiful photographs and took time each day to sit skin-to-skin with my newborn and massage her tiny body. It was our quiet special time to just recall the wonder of life, birth and our future lives together. We would dream.
I have given this book to many new mothers and newborns and bought it this week for my niece. I wrap it with Arbonne's natural Baby Massage Oil. The routine is easy to follow, and the book has quiet, soothing photographs of a mother and baby in this dance of love. Buy it, use it. You will be so thankful you did! Thank you Dr. Leboyer."

"An excellent resource for mothers and care-givers of infant children. This book helps to equip the care-giver to be better care-giver. Part of the book was non-traditional in the sense of it being a resource book."

"Beautifully written, with photos to demonstrate the techniques that could be an art book in and of themselves. You get a feeling of being a part of something magical and wonderful by reading this book and practicing what's in it. I love the simplicity of this book. Highly recommend it for new moms or anyone interested in infant massage."

"Nothing compares to this book, other books or DVDs are a waste of time compare to Loving Hands. Is beautiful and real helpful, for both mother and child. Worth every single penny and much more."
