Pediatric Massage & Massage for Children with Autism

Discover a nurturing, hands-on touch therapy for children from toddlers on up. This therapy offers a gentle, innovative, and non-invasive approach to support each child's development, treatment, and any symptoms they may experience.

 

​Specialized Care for Children on the Autism Spectrum (ASD)

Children with ASD often have unique needs, including lower levels of oxytocin (the "bonding hormone") and heightened levels of cortisol (the "stress hormone"). Nurturing touch therapy can naturally increase oxytocin, reducing stress and fostering a sense of security and connection.

​

For children on the autism spectrum, pediatric massage therapy also provides:

• A sensory-friendly environment tailored to each child

• Assistance with body awareness and comfort with tactile sensations

• A gentle, non-overloading approach to sensory inputs

​

In every session, children are empowered with choices about touch therapy. Consent is requested at the start of each session, and for non-verbal children, we collaborate with parents to ensure a respectful approach to consent and comfort.

​

Older children and teens are welcome to schedule a regular massage as well!

​

Please be aware that state law requires a parent or guardian to be present in the room throughout the entirety of the massage for those under the age of 18.
