Bringing a newborn home is a tender and demanding time, and babies deserve gentle, careful hands. At Velvet Wrecking Ball Myofascial Release, we offer myofascial release for newborns and infants in a calm, comfortable setting. Shelly is a registered nurse with 26 years of labor and delivery experience, and she brings that background to the care of our youngest clients. Our goal is to help both baby and parent feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
Why Gentle Care Matters for Babies
Newborns and infants are still growing, and their bodies respond to touch differently than adult bodies do. Myofascial release uses gentle, sustained pressure, which makes it a careful option for little ones. Shelly adjusts her approach to each baby’s size, comfort, and needs, so every visit is tailored to the child in front of her.
How Myofascial Release Supports Infants
Myofascial release works on fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds muscles and organs. When fascia becomes tight, it can restrict movement and contribute to discomfort. Gentle, sustained pressure helps that tissue relax, so the body can move more freely. Because every baby is different, we focus on comfort first and keep each session responsive to how your child feels.
Support for Parents
Caring for a newborn means long days, interrupted sleep, and plenty of questions. Many parents want to understand what their baby’s body is doing and what to expect in the early weeks. Shelly’s labor and delivery background gives her a clear understanding of those early weeks after birth, and she welcomes your questions. New clients can also request a free telephone consultation before booking, which is a good chance to ask anything on your mind before the first visit.
What to Expect at Your Visit
Each visit begins with a conversation about your baby’s history, comfort, and any concerns you have. Please share anything your pediatrician has recommended before the appointment. Shelly then adjusts pressure and positioning to suit your baby that day. If your baby has a medical condition or a recent procedure, please check with your pediatrician before booking.
Related Care for Infants and Children
Infants and children may also be seen for OUCH appointments, which are 30-minute sessions for minor injuries. Newborn and infant care focuses on ongoing comfort, while OUCH appointments address a specific injury that needs attention. When you call, tell us what your family needs so we can recommend the right service.
