About the IAIM massage course
IAIM - International Association of Infant Massage
The International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM) is a global organization and the world standard for teaching and learning infant massage.

The IAIM program is being taught in over 70 different countries all around the world and this number constantly grows.

One of the most important things about IAIM infant massage is that the baby is massaged only by the parents. The instructor demonstrates massage techniques to parents on a special doll.
