I suggest she see a different bodyworker. There should be full function or the bodywork is not complete. A baby causing pain does not have full function. If you are on Long Island, have you suggested Adam Glassman?

Subject: Re: nipple damage and torticollis

Insight and wisdom, please:


Had a postpartum client about 9mos ago.  Baby has PTT was 
treated by a VERY reputable HCP; received follow-up lactation support;
saw a IBCLC, IBCLC picked up torticollis.  Mother took baby
for CS work.  Chiro declared treatment completed.

Mother was never able to go back to bfeeding as the pain was too
great.  Follow-up with HCP who performed frenotomy:  said everything was fine.

Early intervention said there was no torticollis.  

I concurred with the IBCLC, it was very slight, but even I could see it.

Now………baby is exclusively ABMfed (mom went to work,
emotional issues around bfeeding failure, etc.) and UNABLE
TO EAT SOLIDS !

Reached out to IBCLC who said baby needs to be evaluated
by speech pathologist.

I think, not being able to follow up with IBCLC, that it’s all related
to the torticollis.  There’s just something not right with the
shape of this poor child’s head.  Can’t put my finger on it other
than to throw my concerns into the “torticollis basket”

My question:  why would torticollis interfere with solids ?

P.S.  Mom was going to reach out again to DC.
