Infant Bodywork for Latching: A FREE live demonstration & learning event!

When there is tension, compression, or asymmetry in a baby’s body, it can directly affect oral function, comfort, and the ability to breastfeed effectively. Infant bodywork is a gentle approach that can help release these restrictions and support a more effective, comfortable latch.

During this in-person event, Heng Ma will demonstrate gentle, foundational infant bodywork techniques to support latching. She will work with 2–3 babies who are experiencing feeding or latching challenges and demonstrate how infant bodywork can help release physical restrictions that interfere with breastfeeding.

Please join us to learn more about infant bodywork and its role in breastfeeding support in a warm, supportive environment.

Date: Saturday, February 21 @ 10am

Audience: Parents with babies 0–6 months & Birth professionals. Bring your baby for hands on learning!
