benefits of massage and chiropractic

What are the benefits of massage on a 9 year old with Down Syndrome?
My son has an opportunity to get 4 free one hour massage therapy sessions from a local 3rd Year College student. He hasn’t had baby massage and doesn’t seem to enjoy any type of touch….other than sleeping close. As a small child, he enjoyed being held and rocked to sleep. I’ve heard of benefits of Chiropractic therapy in children but what about massage?
He’s 9. If he wants to, give it a try. Stay with him, maybe sit up by his head and hold his hands, reassuring him that you’re there for him. If he gets upset and anxious and wants to stop, let him.
Do you ever get massages? It probably will help if you get them and enjoy them. If you’re tense about it he will be too.
