Infant Bodywork

Maybe you've been told your baby's latch looks good.

Maybe you've tried different positions, made changes at home, asked questions, or simply can't shake the feeling that something isn't quite right.

And still, feeding feels harder than it should.

Your baby may be clicking, pulling off, favoring one side, struggling to settle, or seeming uncomfortable during or after feeds.

Sometimes, the problem isn't just about the latch.

That's why I look at your baby as a whole. Their feeding, their body, their birth story, how they move, and what you're noticing at home.

Bodywork gives us another way to look at what's going on.

Your baby's feeding is connected to more than what happens at the breast.

During a visit, I look at how your baby moves, how they hold their body, what you're noticing during feeds, and what their birth and early days have looked like.

I use gentle myofascial release and craniosacral therapy to work with your baby's body and the areas where you may be noticing tension or difficulty.

The work is slow and responsive. Your baby's cues guide what we do.

You don't have to know exactly what's wrong before you reach out. You bring me what you're seeing at home, and we'll look at the whole picture together.

• Tension through the jaw, neck, shoulders, or body

• Clicking or difficulty coordinating during feeds

• A preference for turning or feeding on one side

• Difficulty settling or getting comfortable

• Body tension that may be affecting movement or feeding

• Feeding changes before or after oral restriction release

Every baby is different. We follow your baby's cues and adjust the work to what they need that day.

I'm an RN and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), so I bring both feeding knowledge and experience caring for babies and families.

My additional training includes:

• Myofascial Release (MFR), John F. Barnes Method

• Craniosacral Therapy (CST), training by Lori Hendrickson

• Craniosacral Fascial Technique (CFT), Gillespie Approach

I also understand that you're not just bringing me a feeding problem. You're bringing me your baby, your questions, and what you've been noticing at home.

My job is to listen, observe, and help you understand what we're seeing.

First, you'll fill out a short form so I can learn a little about your baby and what you're noticing.

I'll review your information and reach out about scheduling.

Then I'll come to your home for a 60-minute visit.

We'll talk through what's been happening, watch your baby move and feed if appropriate, and look at the whole picture together.

I'll use gentle bodywork based on what I'm seeing and what your baby's cues tell us.

You'll have time to ask questions and talk through what you're noticing at home.

No complicated process. No need to know exactly what your baby needs before you reach out.
