✨ Did you know physiotherapy can support lactation and chest/breastfeeding? Feeding shouldn’t be painful — and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Courtney has recently completed 95 hours of continuing education in lactation and chest/breastfeeding, allowing her to provide evidence‑informed support for parents experiencing pain, latch challenges, or difficulty finding comfortable feeding positions.

Courtney is trained in perinatal and lactation‑related care to help support parent and infant:
• Pain from mastitis or blocked ducts
• Improving latch mechanics to reduce ni**le pain
• Comfortable, sustainable feeding positions for both you and baby
• Posture and body mechanics to ease neck, shoulder, and back strain
If feeding feels harder than it should, support exists. You deserve comfort and confidence as you care for yourself and your baby .
📞 To connect with Courtney for lactation or pelvic health physiotherapy, please call the clinic to book. We’re here to support you through every stage of your postpartum journey.
