Does your baby laugh while you massage the right
legs and gets irritated if you do not start on the left soon enough. If not
then definitely you are not using the right oil that makes the baby happy. After
all laughing and crying are the only two expressions an infant has mastered and
therefore with the slightest feeling of discomfort a cry emancipates.
But that is the baby, whose happiness and anxiety doesn't last for long. But when parents get worried about some ailment of their baby,
the anxiety seems to last for days and nights at end.
Once upon a time when a baby was born in the family
and the doctor said one of the legs was slightly not normal and could have
trouble while walking. That statement of the doctor devastated the parents as
well as the extended family. But the doctor added that some therapeutic
treatments if started early will cure this before the time comes for walking.
This was a bright ray of hope but ever body was over anxious to see that time
arrive.
The only therapy that could be applied to a new
born is oil massage. This is the time when the goodness in natural oils comes
to our rescue and creates wonders in the development of the baby’s bone and
muscle. Mother Nature’s garden is abundant with fruits, vegetables, roots and
seeds that when harnessed and extracted to create oil could provide remedy to
almost every ailment. All we need is to select the right kind of oil for our
cure or the combination of a few. This is the time when products like Dabur
Baby Massage Oil come to the rescue and the baby turns into an active child
running around the house to the great relieve of the family.
Almond oil for example provides a natural remedy
for dark spots by clearing away the dead skin cells, while avocado oil gives
the much needed omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. Argan oil on the other
hand is packed essential fatty acids along with vitamin E, making it a great moisturiser. Our common coconut oil is packed with protein and has
antibacterial properties along with other advantages. Bacteria do not stand a
chance with the sesame oil. And the list goes on with the other great
ingredients like Olive oil, Castor oil, Aloe vera, Arnica, Carrot Seeds, so on
and so forth. Each one of these oils has their own good effect but care should
be taken not to use nut extracted oils for one with nut allergy.
We tend to think that life was much better during
the time of home remedies by our grandmother and great grandmothers. This
knowledge and the know-how were available within the family and passed down from
generations after generation. But with the pressure of urbanization and
industrialization of our society this age-old technique of home remedy is facing
extinction. We are instead left to the mercy of either local quacks or the unscrupulous
manufacturer who deceive the vulnerable for their own profits.
But thank to people like Doctor Burman, we still
get products that we can trust. After all we do not want to put our little
angels in the harm’s way.
