Wooden Massage Ball

These palm sized wooden balls have hand filed points and give a firm massage when rolled in your hand. Perfect to add to a sensory or calm down basket, for helping little ones relax before bed orĀ to relieve anxiety in challenging situations.Ā 

How to:
Have your child lie down (face up or down). Gently roll theĀ massage ball along their body up from their feet, being careful not to put too much pressure on their abdomen. Roll the ball across each arm and ask if they want to try how it feels on their head (not face!).Ā Check with your child if they want more pressure or less (harder or softer).

Benefits of massage for children:
Massage provides proprioceptive input which can help regulateĀ children's sensory systems.

Rhythmic and predictable movements of massage are helpful for calmingĀ children, or preparing them for a challenging situation.Ā Slow pressure movements can help our child to regulate their breathing and heart rate without being asked to do this consciously.Ā Ā 

Massage is also a lovelyĀ non-verbal way to communicate tenderness and care, and build the connection between child and caregiver. It promotes secure attachment, releases feel-good hormones and helpsĀ children feel loved and cherished.  

Approximate dimensions: 5cm diameter. Please note - these massage balls are not toys - use with supervision.
