Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions.

What are feeding and latching difficulties?

Feeding and latching difficulties may involve attachment, sucking, swallowing, positioning, milk transfer or discomfort. During your baby’s assessment, we consider whether neck, jaw or postural comfort may be relevant. If feeding, swallowing or growth requires medical or lactation assessment, we will refer your baby to a GP, child-health nurse, lactation consultant or another appropriate professional.

What signs may parents notice with feeding or latching difficulties?

Signs can include difficulty attaching, repeatedly coming off the breast or bottle, clicking, coughing, prolonged feeds, unsettled feeding, reduced wet nappies or poor weight gain. Prompt professional assessment is important when intake or growth is affected.

Can chiropractic care treat feeding problems?

Chiropractic care does not treat feeding disorders. An age-adapted musculoskeletal assessment may consider comfortable head turning, jaw and neck movement, posture and feeding positions where clinically appropriate. If lactation or medical assessment is needed, we will refer your baby to the appropriate professional.

What happens during a pediatric chiropractic appointment?

The appointment usually includes a history, age-appropriate movement and posture assessment, gentle examination, explanation of findings, and care options modified to the child’s size, age, and needs.

Ask our infant feeding chiropractor charlestown team about a tailored plan for your baby’s comfort.

Care for babies and children is modified and gentle. At Be Amazing Chiropractic, any care recommendation is explained clearly so parents can make an informed decision.
