On the subject of ultrasound, I would just like to mention a study which
showed that mothers treated with ultrasound did no better than a placebo
group. The reference is:
McLachlan Z, Milne E June, Lumley, Judith, Walker, Barbara L, Ultrasound
treatment for breast engorgement: a randomised double blind trial.
Breastfeeding Review vol II no 7 May 1993.
What are your thoughts on this study, other Aussies?
