Hi, I'm Dr. Heidi.
I'm a Chiropractic Physician and board certified lactation consultant who specializes in the care of infants and children. I am an expert in this field and have been in practice for 25+ years.
I help keep kids healthy and teach their parents holistic tips and tricks to keep them that way. I provide a unique approach of gentle chiropractic care, craniosacral therapy and myofascial release to address areas of concern. I evaluate milestone delays and offer suggestions for you to help your child at home. I also work with children with torticollis, flat heads, digestive disorders and colic.
Being an IBCLC (international board-certified lactation consultant) gives me specialized knowledge and experience to focus on infant oral motor issues, general feeding difficulties and maternal problems related to infant feeding. I foster a team approach working with pediatric dentists, ENT physicians, speech language pathologists and physical and occupational therapists to support a child's healing. I provide the necessary bodywork for pre and post tongue tie revisions as well as myo support to teach the muscles how to properly work so your baby can feed efficiently. The main focus of my practice is on helping infants who are struggling to feed at either the breast or bottle.
