This study looks at the possible effect that body massage would have on infants with low birth weights. The clinical trial was conducted in a hospital in Yazd, Iran in 2011 from March to December. The infants accessed were separated into two groups. One group received massages from their mothers three times a day for 14 consecutive days. Weight, height and head circumference of the infants was evaluated. Weight of the infants in the group that received massages from their mothers three times a day for 14 consecutive days showed significant increase at the age of two months.
