About The Baby Ear Infection Massage Course

This 13 steps Shonishin baby ear infection massage course aims to help your baby or toddler with ear-related problems, with a particular focus on infant and toddler ear infections.

When I treat babies and toddlers for ear problems, they have usually been diagnosed from an ear infection.

Baby or toddler ear infections are a nasty problem for both, the child and her parents.

Parents find it hard to read the signs of an ear infection in babies or toddlers as such.

For the child on the other hand, ear infections can be quite painful, because they can cause inflammation and swelling of the so-called “eustachian tube”.

Both, the inflammation and the swelling can cause the tube to narrow. The result is an accumulation of fluids behind the eardrums, which can cause pressure and ear pain.

The baby ear infection massage treatment that I teach in this course addresses that issue.

Accordingly, this course is for you, if you are looking for natural home remedies for baby and toddler ear infections.

Moreover, this baby ear infection massage treatment also addresses general baby and toddler ear problems, which are not necessarily related to an ear infection.

Examples are general ear pain (even from teething), wax and phlegm.

On top of that, the treatment aims to improve the overall condition of the baby and to activate her immune response.

About Shonishin

Shonishin is a form of Japanese pediatric acupuncture, however, without using needles. It has more the character of a massage treatment for babies and children, which consists of stroking, tapping and classic massage techniques. 

Shonishin was developed in the 17th century and predominantly applied by health practitioners in Japan. Today, it is considered to be the most effective alternative treatment for children-related issues, according to leading experts in the field.
