Lactation Support
Breastfeeding / Infant Feeding Support
Breast/chestfeeding can be one of the most challenging parts of new parenthood.
Research shows that osteopathy, combined with lactation support, can lead to positive outcomes in breastfeeding.
Anne-Marie has completed the educational requirements to becoming a lactation consultant and combines this knowledge with her osteopathic skillset to provide a welcoming and supportive environment to help you with your feeding goals. She works collaboratively with midwives, family doctors, pediatricians, lactation consultants, pediatric dentists and other healthcare providers to support you & your feeding goals. You will receive education, practical support and personalized approaches to your situation.
