In the later part of 20th Century Dr. Phenfield was once experimenting over brains of different epileptic patients. He found that when specific area of brain is electrically stimulated, its reaction is seen at a specific organ. He continued experiments and made calculations regarding how much part of brain is reserved for a specific organ and came to conclusion that most of it is reserved for arms then legs and then mouth. He also interpreted that more importance is given to arms and legs because they convey huge amount of information about external environment to brain.
Skin - Skin of your baby is not just an external covering, it is the largest organ of his body with immense functioning ability. It contains about 4 million pain sensors, 0.5 million touch sensors and about 0.2 million temperature sensors. It can identify and differentiate millions of textures. What one can see with eyes can be equally sensed with skin. This skin plays a vital role in brain development of your child. So what you can do to get the maximum benefit -
1. Once your child is old enough, let him wander almost naked. Let him sense cold, warm, lukewarm naturally.
2. Allow him to handle objects of different texture. eg. cotton, wood, steel, animal skin etc
3. To get good amount of oxygen supply to his skin make him exercise regularly.
4. Massaging and Caressing do help a lot.
5. Pay attention to general health of skin. If you observe any patches, rash - consult physician.
6. Diet containing all the essential vitamins especially vit.A, vit.C, vit.E and trace elements like Zinc are equally essential for maintaining the skin healthy.
Though Skin is external and most superficial organ, its roots are deep in the developing brain.01. Plan your health : Revealing the concept
