How Chiropractic Care Can Support Babies with Tongue Tie by Dr. Adrienne McRuvie
Feeding challenges can sometimes be linked to tongue tie—a condition where a baby’s tongue is restricted by a small band of tissue, affecting latch, digestion, and comfort. While tongue tie release (frenectomy) is one option, chiropractic care can gently support your baby before and after the procedure.
Through light adjustments and cranial work, pediatric chiropractors help ease jaw and neck tension, support tongue movement, and encourage calmer, more effective feeding. Families often notice babies not only feed better but also feel more at ease overall.
Chiropractic care offers gentle, natural support for both babies and parents—whether or not you choose a release.
