A Chiropractor's Role in Tongue and Lip Tie Revisions

As parents, we always strive to provide the best possible care for our little ones. When it comes to tongue and lip ties and their revisions, many parents focus solely on the procedure itself, overlooking an essential aspect of their baby's health: chiropractic care. At Sacred Spines Chiropractic, we firmly believe in a comprehensive approach to your child's well-being. In this blog post, we'll explore why pre and post-revision chiropractic care is integral to your baby's journey toward optimal health.

Understanding Tongue and Lip Tie Revisions:


Tongue and lip ties occur when the frenulum, the tissue connecting the tongue or lip to the mouth, is tight or restrictive. These conditions can impede proper movement, affecting breastfeeding, swallowing, and even speech development. A specialized provider performs a revision procedure to release the frenulum, allowing your baby to move their tongue or lip more freely.

The Role of Chiropractic Care:


Pre-Revision Chiropractic Care: Before the revision procedure, our experienced chiropractors will assess your baby's spine, nervous system, and overall musculoskeletal alignment. Misalignments in these areas can have a profound impact on your baby's ability to breastfeed, swallow, and develop speech properly. By addressing these misalignments beforehand, we optimize your baby's overall function, setting the stage for the best possible outcome from the revision.

Post-Revision Chiropractic Care: After the revision, your baby's body undergoes an adjustment period. This is where post-revision chiropractic care plays a crucial role. Our gentle and safe chiropractic techniques facilitate the healing and recovery process. By addressing any discomfort or tension that may arise, we help your baby breastfeed comfortably and enhance their overall well-being.


The Benefits of Chiropractic Care:

1. Improved Feeding: Misalignments in the spine and nervous system can affect your baby's latch and feeding efficiency. By correcting these misalignments through chiropractic adjustments, we help improve their ability to breastfeed successfully.

2. Optimal Healing and Recovery: Chiropractic care promotes proper healing and recovery after the revision procedure. Our techniques help reduce inflammation, alleviate discomfort, and enhance the body's natural healing processes.


3. Overall Well-being: Chiropractic care is not limited to addressing specific issues. It also focuses on optimizing your baby's overall health and well-being. By ensuring proper spinal alignment and nervous system function, we support their development and help them thrive.
