Can a simple massage boost your Baby's defenses?

NCT ID NCT07228728

Summary

This study aims to understand how regular skin massage affects a baby's developing immune system and skin health. Researchers will enroll 109 healthy babies up to 6 months old and randomly assign them to receive no massage, massage twice a week, or daily massage for 8 weeks. The study will measure immune signals in the skin fluid and check for changes in the skin's protective barrier and bacteria.
