Over the past 30 years there has been a huge increase in the number of women wanting to breastfeed their babies.

Much of this increase is underpinned by an influential emerging evidence base, which indicates a wealth of health benefits to the baby from this mode of feeding.

However, breastfeeding itself can be problematic for a variety of reasons, and failure to breastfeed successfully, has become one of the more common presentations to Osteopaths, and other manual practitioners, who treat early life disorders.

One of the keys to recognising and treating an infant struggling with breast or bottle feeding, is an understanding of the Suck/Swallow/Breathe mechanism, the related anatomy, and a range of techniques, both direct and indirect, to optimise any physiological deficiencies.


We offer a really practical 6 part Webinar Series, to provide an in-depth guide to this subject. We include lots of unique graphics to explain the applied anatomy. All our techniques are filmed on real babies or models, and we provide a supporting interactive question and answer session after every webinar.

Each Webinar covers a different aspect of the topics involved, and is delivered as a one hour presentation followed by a 30 minute discussion and question & answer session with Miranda Clayton. The webinars are available for 3 months following purchase.
Each webinar comes with full notes and articles of interest.

We have designed this Webinar Series for fully qualified Osteopaths, Craniosacral Therapists, Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, and all practitioners who use hands-on approaches to infant care.
We assume that practitioners will have some prior paediatric knowledge before taking part.
