Breastfeeding Chiropractic & Bodywork in Hamden

Gentle, effective care by a Board Certified Pediatric Chiropractor

Mother Breastfeeding Baby

Ready to feel better — and stay that way?

Gentle, effective care to help your baby feed comfortably.

Many parents search for help with latch difficulty, shallow latch, clicking, gassiness, or feeding discomfort. These issues are often related to tension patterns in the jaw, neck, shoulders, or cranial system — not just feeding technique. Infant chiropractic care can help improve oral opening, suction, and overall feeding mechanics so nursing becomes more comfortable for both baby and parent.

Dr. Eileen Denny is an ICA board‑certified pediatric chiropractor with nearly 30 years of clinical experience. She provides gentle, evidence‑informed infant care that supports feeding comfort for families across Hamden, New Haven, and surrounding communities.
