Testimonials

Here's what people are saying about Gentle Hands: A Step-By-Step Guide To Giving Healthy Massage To Children by Susan Harley:

"A child's early years are crucial to their well being as adults. A positive, supportive family environment is singularly important in helping our children realise their potential and live happy, healthy lives as adult members of our society. Your work in helping parents and children build positive relationships through massage will, I'm sure, make a difference to families in need and in so doing, help create a more positive future for all of our children."
Fiona Stanley
TVW Telethon Institute for Child Health Research

"This book presents a concise formula and a clear explanation of the non-physical aspects of massage that make the technique become filled with the power of human love and compassion."
Dr Barry Green
Founder of Body Mind College, San Diego, California

"I started to read Gentle Hands yesterday and I am loving it. It's so easy to read; I love the layout and the anecdotes especially. It has already inspired me to resume massaging Madeline. She used to like it as a tiny baby, but unfortunately I've been overlooking it lately. Thanks to Gentle Hands, we are back on track."
Sarah Brown
Mother

"After having given Gentle Hands massage to our son for months now, applying sunscreen has turned into a massage opportunity! It's been a great bonding time for us all"
Sylvia Camus
System Analyst

"Gentle Hands massage beautifully describes the tender way you will be guided through the baby massage process. Harley's guidance is focussed, intentional, and filled with loving care."
Robert Cote
Centre of Alignment

"Gentle Hands massage has turned nappy changing from a wild wrestling session into a calm stroking session. A breath of relief for us all."
Michael Hill
Regional Manager of Evans and Tate

"Harley's book is a wonderful reminder of the importance of touch, and her Gentle Hands Massage is an easy step-by-step approach to follow. A wonderful book!"
Gary De Rodreguez
Founder of Neuro-Linguistic Centre of San Diego

"The earlier you start touching children in a healthy way, the better it is for all of society. Gentle Hands Massage shows us how to do it with love and intention in an easy to follow approach."
Linda Henning
Licensed Holistic Health Practitioner


"This book is long overdue! Fortunately it is coming out at a time when people are more aware of how vital it is to touch, stroke and connect with our children in healthy, tactile ways. Gentle Hands massage shows you how to do that and enjoy it!"
Carrie Parrish, CPM, MPH

"It's important to touch children from the time they are born, and more importantly, to keep touching them as they grow up. Gentle Hands massage can be adapted from the youngest to the oldest child. Buy a copy NOW and start touching your children again!"
Lorraine Ruskey-DeAndrea, RN

"This is the best book on children's massage I have read! It gives easy-to-follow instructions, has a great reference guide with massage techniques to use for common childhood ailments, and emphasizes the importance of touch."
Wendy Briggs
Director of Dalkeith Day Care Centre

"I wish this book had been around when I was having children; however, it has been a treasure use with my grandchildren."
Carol Wood
Owner of Broadway Kids

"I started giving my daughter Gentle Hands massage when she was 3 weeks old, and now at 21 months old, she expects at least a back massage every time I change her nappy. It's a wonderful bonding time for us."
Sharon Weston
Teacher

"An excellent addition to the field of massage therapy. It is clinically precise and clear in offering concrete methods of giving a Gentle Hands massage to children. I heartily recommend this book!"
Dr. Brett Smith
Chiropractor

"As owner and director of "Whispering Pines Day Care Centre, I am very aware of the importance of touch with babies and children. It is great to see Harley's book emphasize that and also give clear and concise instructions on how to do it. This book is a must for all families."
Yvette Putt
Director and Owner of Whispering Pines Day Care Centre

"The beauty of "Gentle Hands" is that it is designed to be used as a handbook for practical children's massage. As such, it is written in terms that are easily understood. A range of photographs beautifully demonstrates the techniques, and the many benefits of massage are defined for the reader. I recommend the book to my course participants and to my clients because I view it as a most excellent resource for parents and caregivers."
Jan Clarke
Infant Massage Instructor and Remedial Massage Practitioner, Armadale, WA Australia

"This book was an easy read and was well illustrated. My 4-month old son loves to be massaged after his bath. He is so relaxed, he's been falling asleep almost too early in the evening. He loves the facial part as much as I love seeing his smiling face. The stomach techniques have really helped in keeping him regular as well."
Jody Pawel

"I have been trying to massage the girls (siamese twins joined at the base of spines) and the book gave me direction. Thank you for your guidance and thoughtfulness that fills this book."
Emily, Jim, Lexi and Syd
