SCHEDULE WITH MAURA

Using a holistic and family-centered approach, we support your infant’s individualized feeding goals. Each child is unique and so are their feeding and developmental support needs. To support your family’s feeding goals, we use our airway-centric knowledge to offer oral motor neuromuscular re-education, pre- and post-frenectomy therapy, sensory integrative approaches, and whole-body therapy. We have extensive training in working with babies with tethered oral tissues like tongue and lip ties. 

Our licensed providers teach foundational skills for infant learning and development. We have training in the Tummy Time! Method, sensory processing and integration, reflex integration, visual-vestibular techniques, infant pelvic floor, rhythmic movements, and other whole-body techniques (including Craniosacral and Myofascial Release) to support a variety of symptoms and conditions like issues with colic, feeding, sensory processing, nervous system regulation, sleep disruption, increased tension throughout the body, low or high muscle tone. We also have experience working with specificity diagnoses like plagiocephaly, brachycephaly, scaphocephaly, delayed or atypical motor development, torticollis, trisomy 21, cleft palate and more.
