Tongue / lip tie release

👩 Question: 👶 tongue tie is scheduled to be clipped next week. Would it be better to see a chiropractor before or after that?

👩🏼‍⚕️Answer: Before the release would be helpful to
💪🏼 reduce muscular tension
😴 improve ability to relax
🍽️ improve mouth functionality
😎 improve spinal alignment

With optimal alignment, muscle tone, & functionality before the release, it helps improve recovery outcomes.

The 1st week after the release is usually focused on working with your lactation consultant or feeding expert to do exercises, stretching, & improve feeding with the new tongue/lip mobility.

Early Breastfeeding Protects Preschool Mental Health

"Early breastfeeding, particularly during the first 4 months of life, was associated with fewer emotional and behavioural problems in children at the age of 4 years.

Children breastfed for this duration had reduced internalising and externalising problems, aggressive behaviour, and symptoms related to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

No additional benefit was observed beyond 8 months of breastfeeding."
