"The only thing I have seen really work to "relax" these babies is
craniosacral therapy. The practitioner that I refer to says that the
reflux stuff is really impaction of the nerves to the stomach and she
works on those and stops the stomach issues. She feels the nerve issue
is the cause, not that the reflux is the cause."

This is so important to note. Reflux is a symptom, not a diagnosis. 
Reflux may be related to oversupply, but the oversupply itself is a 
symptom. Usually, where there is reflux, I see babies with structural 
trauma. You often see a rigid diaphragm in babies with reflux and many 
babies with feeding problems are stuck in a sympathetic response. IMO, 
there is no way we can properly take care of these medically 
traumatized babies without chiropractors or CSTs.
