Massage can be a particularly good option for children with special needs as it can help improve their motor skills, relieve stress, aid in the development of their social skills, reduce anxiety and even improve their quality of sleep.
Massage has been used as a form of therapy for those with disabilities, including stroke victims and people with autism. Research has shown that massage can help reduce anxiety, depression and pain.
