ABSTRACT

Studies from several labs have documented a 31 to 47% greater weight gain in
preterm new-borns receiving massage therapy (three 15-min sessions for 5–10
days) compared with standard medical treatment. Although the underlying
mechanism for this relationship between massage therapy and weight gain has not
yet been established, possibilities that have been explored in studies with both
humans and rats include (a) increased protein synthesis, (b) increased vagal
activity that releases food-absorption hormones like insulin and enhances
gastric motility, and (c) decreased cortisol levels leading to increased
oxytocin. In addition, functional magnetic resonance imaging studies are being
conducted to assess the effects of touch therapy on brain development. Further
behavioral, physiological, and genetic research is needed to understand these
effects of massage therapy on growth and development.
