Tongue tie, breastfeeding chiropractor Brisbane
At Geebung Family Chiropractic we regularly see newborn babies and children and utilise Cranial Techniques and Craniofacial therapy that are very gentle approaches using light pressure to stretch and ease tension around the cranium. The trained Tongue Tie Chiropractor will take a holistic approach and will also assess the entire spine of your child due to the interconnected nature of the tissues of the spine and the cranium.
We strongly believe in a multidisciplinary approach to breastfeeding issues, tongue-tie and other Craniofacial concerns and will always do our best to find you the support needed to obtain the best results for your family.
For families concerned about feeding and breastfeeding issues, we also recommend consulting professionals such as Bridget Ingle (Lactation Consultant & Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist) at Chermside on the north side of Brisbane, as an expert in the field of myofacial function. Bridget and other experts in the field support families with breastfeeding and orofacial concerns.
If your baby is experiencing a tongue tie or other craniofacial issues, they may have developed habits which have caused ineffectual feeding. If the baby is breastfed, these habits can at times result in breastfeeding being painful for mum.
Tongue tie surgery (otherwise known as a frenectomy) may be recommended and carried out by professionals in the field to assist in managing a diagnosed tongue tie. Chiropractors do not diagnose or revise tongue-ties, however Chiropractors can assess children for compensations in the musculoskeletal system which may be associated with tongue-tie, breastfeeding issues or Craniofacial imbalances. Finding a trained and experienced Tongue Tie Chiropractor in Brisbane is essential if you are focussed on restoring these imbalances.
The Chiropractors at Geebung Family Chiropractic all have training and experience in assessing and caring for children of all ages. We pride ourselves in providing patient centred care where your families needs always come first. We take pride in providing the best standards of chiropractic care for families of the North Brisbane region.
