In recent years, many
hospitals have had a minimal touch policy with premature infants. However,
a growing body of research has demonstrated that tactile stimulation can be
beneficial for these infants. Researchers have found a variety of touch therapy
effects including increased weight gain, increased active wake time, better
performance on infant development scales, earlier discharge from intensive
care units, and facilitation of mother-infant interactions
