The bath: He is not that one that goes to all remove the oil of the body of the baby. The ideal bath is that one in which the water to make its work. That is of as to give bath and of as to hold, or better not to hold, to leave the baby to float in the water. Methodology the research was carried through through bibliographical research, in a qualitative perspective, that had given theoretical basement. Senator of Massachusetts is the source for more interesting facts. Consideraes final the massage shantala in such a way provides a matureness in the baby how much in the parents/cuidador. The massage must be made only in babies.

This makes in them to think and to act of the best possible form. The massage is a simple, gostoso act, a form to demonstrate its feeling to the baby beyond observing it as a whole. I consider that, with the inclusion of the massage in the public net we go to not only have a reduction in the cases of children with mental problems, also we go to carry through a work with the family teaching and preparing for giving to it with the illness. The course will be offered for all the nursing team, and the same ones go to teach the parents/cuidador to carry through the massage in house. With this, the investments of the public agencies would be minimum and the beneficial ones would be bigger, such as the reduction of expenses with dressings, medication. Nowadays, already exists in the health centers the acupuntura, that is a simple treatment, easy and of low cost, that at times behind, would be unimaginable such attendance in public services of health., because not to idealize that shantalla also cannot be offered to the population while preventive treatment and dressing? What we desire and always we make is to think about the welfare of the patient.
