Several techniques can be employed to practice gentle touch in pediatrics:
Kangaroo care: This involves holding a baby skin-to-skin, which can help stabilize their heart rate and breathing. Infant massage: Gentle, systematic rubbing of the infant's body can promote relaxation and improve circulation. Swaddling: Wrapping an infant snugly in a blanket can provide a sense of security and warmth. Therapeutic touch: This involves specific techniques aimed at reducing pain or discomfort in children with medical conditions.
