Feeding Therapy/Occupational Therapy

Following a comprehensive evaluation, a treatment plan will be created with your input. Depending on the complexity of the feeding problem, a home program issued at the time of the evaluation may be enough. For others, a few follow ups may be needed to make sure that the treatment plan is working and to adjust the home program. Some children will benefit from weekly ongoing visits to make the fastest progress in the shortest amount of time. We will discuss all options and determine the best way to proceed to reach your goals.

While feeding might be your primary concern, the following conditions/difficulties can affect your child’s feeding skills:

• torticollis

• plagiocephaly

• abnormal muscle tone

• tension

• sensory processing difficulties

• delayed gross motor (poor head control, delayed sitting, etc.)

• delayed fine motor and visual motor skills (delayed reaching, grasping, eye-hand coordination)

Occupational therapy can address these symptoms and help improve your child’s development, including gross motor skills, fine motor skills and sensory processing.

Feeding therapy and occupational therapy are often combined into one session or can be offered separately depending on you child’s needs.

Feeding/Occupational therapy sessions are 45 minutes to 1 hour.
