The complex feeding clinic
Cranial osteopathy and breastfeeding or bottle-feeding support in one combined consultation.
What is the complex feeding clinic?
The complex feeding clinic offers support and treatment with a lactation consultant and paediatric osteopath in a combined consultation.
In the clinic, Luci Lishman and our partnering registered osteopath Felicity Bertin combine their expertise to help your baby feel and feed better.
How can osteopathy help my baby feed?
Birth delivery is strenuous and can cause muscle strains and tension in your baby's body. Not many parents realise this can cause breastfeeding or bottle-feeding problems.
Osteopathic treatment (cranial osteopathy) alongside breastfeeding support can help:
-
wind/colic or an unsettled baby
-
neck or jaw restriction (only looking one way)
-
difficulty latching
-
suspected tongue-tie
-
strains from instrumental delivery (ventouse, forceps)
