Breastfeeding Support
We most commonly see newborns and infants for latching and/or feeding issues. Gentle Pediatric Chiropractic care and Craniosacral therapy are the primary tools and techniques we use to help or compliment care.
Bodywork like Craniosacral techniques uses light touch to release fascia, a connective tissue that wraps around every muscle (organs too). This allows the body to “unwind” and return to a more balanced state.
Chiropractic works with a child’s body to remove any pressure on the nervous system. For example, if a baby is having difficulty latching, cranial-sacral therapy can help release tension to allow for a good latch. If there is TMJ (temporal-mandibular joint) dysfunction or loss of proper alignment/motion in the cranial area and neck, gentle Pediatric Chiropractic can be an excellent option.
