Feeding difficulties are among the biggest challenges new parents experience after the birth of their newborn. There are many factors that can contribute to difficulty with breastfeeding and bottle feeding: prematurity, delivery interventions, birth trauma or injury, maternal breast/nipple anatomy, infant’s oral anatomy, muscular and tensegrity imbalance, and many others.

We conduct comprehensive health history and exams on both you and your child to fully understand the contributing factors that challenge feeding so we can provide the best individualized, high-quality and evidence-based care to you and your precious child. Additionally, we work in collaboration with other specialists in the community: feeding therapists, occupational therapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, physical therapists, cranio-facial specialists, neonatologists and will provide timely referrals when indicated.
