Rachel,

When you say "naturallyoccurring channel palate", do you mean caused by intra-uterine fascial restriction rather than by the placement of an NG tube?

If so, then bodywork would be key to release fascial restriction and normalize the structure of the palate. There is a chiropractor in Oslo Thorleif Henning-Monsen who has his Master's in peds and is well-versed in infant oral anatomy. I know it's not a short drive but perhaps he can recommend someone else or it would be worth the drive.
