Chiropractic Cranial Sacral and Breastfeeding
​

Breastfeeding is an art. As with any art , it requires many pieces coming together to make the masterpiece. Baby, breast, suckle, milk easy peasy ...right? Not for everyone or every time.
Breastfeeding requires the intricate coordination of the 22 bones of their skull comprising 34 joints, along with 60 voluntary and involuntary muscles under the control of six of their 12 cranial nerves. This proper coordination, allows for your baby to learn to suck, swallow, breathe to get the milk needed to grow and develop. However, with so many working parts, there are lots of places where the process can go wrong. That is why chiropractic and cranial sacral care are important part of infant care. Dr. Denny has over 20 years of caring for this dyad, call today to experience the difference
