A Holistic Approach to Tongue Ties and Infant Oral Function (Ft. Midline Revolution)

When a child is diagnosed with an oral restriction, such as a tongue tie, there is often a lot of pressure to get a frenectomy done as soon as possible.​Parents are told that if they don't do a frenectomy, their child will have issues down the road with breastfeeding, solids, sleep apnea, etc. ​​​But many parents aren't given the time or resources to explore other options of care.​So the question is: what can be done holistically to help address oral restrictions and breastfeeding problems - whether it's instead of doing a frenectomy, or in addition to doing one?​This episode explores the answer to that question as Jordan speaks with Midline Revolution - a group that combines chiropractic care, myofascial cranial therapy, and lactation consultation to help mothers and babies navigate issues like oral restrictions and breastfeeding in the first year of life.Together, they explore how to holistically treat tongue and lip ties.Tune in to learn:What an oral restriction isWhy a lot of medical advice is heavily focused on immediately doing a frenectomy and why might this not be the best first solutionHolistic approaches to dealing with oral restrictionsWhy many people aren't getting the outcomes they want from a frenectomyHow information overload is impacting motherhood and the decisions we makeWhat can be done to holistically support someone who has already gotten a frenectomyWant to dig deeper into this episode?
