Home Remedies for Children's INSOMNIA
- After a bath or just before bedtime, try to establish
a routine of giving your child a gentle massage with a soothing aroma therapy oil.
Babies are much easier to massage after a bath than are young children, who are much more bouncy at this time. It may be best to wait until your child has settled down for a bedtime read before giving him a gentle back rub or hand and foot massage.
For young babies: use Chamomile in a base of Almond oil. For babies over 1 year old: you can also use Geranium. For children over 6 years old: combine Chamomile and Geranium together.
- Add these essences to a warm bath to help your
child to unwind and to induce feelings of calmness. You can also use them in a vaporizer in the bedroom and/or place a few drops on a tissue and tuck it under your child's pillow.
