Feeding and swallowing
We provide thorough assessment for infant feeding and swallowing disorders. Implementing evidence-based treatment techniques promotes safe and developmentally-appropriate feeding and swallowing skills.
Infant Feeding Difficulties
We strive to provide individualized care that supports both bottle feeding and the breast feeding dyad.
Common feeding challenges in infants:
Painful breastfeeding
Difficulty establishing a deep latch at breast or bottle
Bottle refusal
Loss of milk around the bottle nipple
Clicking, coughing, choking
Gassiness, arching, turning away
Difficulty with transitioning to solids
Our Comprehensive Approach to Treatment
Treatment is designed to address the root causes of feeding difficulties. We will create a customized plan for your child’s needs and provide ongoing support for your family.
Multidisciplinary collaboration is essential and requires a team approach to provide the most comprehensive care. We work closely with pediatricians, physical therapists, cranial sacral therapists, and chiropractors to address the multifaceted nature of infant feeding issues.
