Breastfeeding is a biological norm for infant care and development. Not only is it an incredible bonding experience for mother and child, it offers nutritional  and socio-emotional development necessary in the earliest stages of life. Everyones experience can be very different and I am here to help you and your family through your individual journey - Jade Garcia IBCLC

Mother Breastfeeding Baby

🌿 Advanced Lactation Support with a Holistic Approach

​

IBCLC-Led Care | CranioSacral-Informed Techniques

​

Feeding difficulties are often signs of deeper physiological challenges. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and a current student of CranioSacral Therapy, I provide comprehensive, evidence-based lactation care with an emphasis on oral dysfunction, structural restrictions, and nervous system regulation.

My practice integrates CranioSacral techniques, reflexology, and therapeutic support for post-frenectomy recovery, offering a well-rounded approach to improve feeding function and infant comfort.

​

 

🌿 Areas of Clinical Focus Include:

​

🔸 Maternal Symptoms:

  • Nipple damage (soreness, cracks, bleeding)

  • Breast pain, engorgement, plugged ducts

  • Mastitis and breast inflammation

  • Inadequate or low milk supply

 

🔸 Infant Feeding Concerns:​

  • Poor weight gain despite frequent feeding

  • Clicking, smacking, or leaking at the breast

  • Excessive sleepiness while nursing

  • Gassiness, reflux-like symptoms, or colic

  • Difficulty latching or sustaining a latch

  • Lip or tongue blisters, tension in the jaw or neck, arching at the breast

  • Ankyloglossia (tongue-tie) and related oral restrictions

​

🌿 Advanced Structural & Neurological Considerations:

Feeding involves more than latch — it depends on the coordination of cranial nerves, fascial mobility, and proper skeletal alignment.

  • Cranial nerve dysfunction affecting suck-swallow-breathe patterns

  • Cranial suture bridging inhibiting oral and facial mobility

  • Restricted dura mater can affect central nervous system signaling and feeding rhythm

  • Misalignment of the skull or cervical spine contributing to postural imbalance or latch issues

Through gentle CranioSacral-informed touch and reflexology, I support the release of restrictions in the head, neck, and spine to enhance function and regulation.

​

🌿 Post-Frenectomy Recovery Support:

If your baby has undergone a tongue- or lip-tie release, I offer:​

  • Functional retraining for suck coordination and oral muscle integration

  • Parental guidance on post-procedure care, feeding transitions, and nervous system support

​

🌿 Your Baby’s Feeding Journey Deserves Individualized, Compassionate Care

With a blend of clinical expertise and body-based modalities, I create personalized care plans tailored to your family’s needs and values.

I collaborate closely with pediatric dentists, bodyworkers, physical therapists, and other providers for comprehensive, team-based support.
