⚠️ The guppy is NOT the same as bodywork!

While the guppy is often recommended for babies with feeding difficulties and body tension, it should never replace bodywork.
Bodywork is done by a specialist (PT, OT, DC, CST, etc) who identifies and treats the compensations beneath what you’re seeing during a feeding session. We treat the whole body from head to toe. Musculoskeletal and fascial restrictions often underlie feeding dysfunction. Without addressing them directly, progress with feeding may stall.

The guppy or head hangs should be prescribed by a bodyworker who can use the whole body to guide their exercise prescription for when the body is READY for end-range cervical extension.

🍼 Lactation and pediatric bodyworker collaboration allows us to address both oral and full-body components—helping the infant feed, sleep, and play optimally.
