Holistic + Lactation Focused Infant Therapy Practice

Supporting all families in Northwest Arkansas by helping little ones feed, move, and feel their absolute best.

  • I cannot recommend Dr. Claire enough. We were struggling with one fussy baby and I just knew in my heart something wasn’t right. After our evaluation with Dr. Claire, I learned that my baby had a tongue tie and resultant tension. Over the course of 2 months of therapy, my baby has improved so significantly, it is almost hard to believe. I’m so grateful for Dr. Claire’s help so that we may continue our breastfeeding journey. My baby went from crying 24/7 and being so uncomfortable to a smiling, happy babe. Her calm nature and expertise was so helpful for both my baby and myself as I was dealing with PPD. So very grateful for Dr. Claire.

  • 10/10 recommend! My son was referred to see Dr. Claire for physical therapy to help see if a frenectomy was needed, and get pre-procedural therapy if it was. We started going when he was around 7 weeks old, and had a very educational, efficient experience! As someone who has worked in the dental field for over 5 years, I can really appreciate that Dr. Claire is treating her patients in a way that will encourage exclusive nasal breathing and ideal tongue posture! She is not only the sweetest ever (!!!), but she was able to help us improve with breastfeeding positioning, baby’s tummy discomfort, muscle tension, finding answers relating to our diet, and more! I have told all my momma friends about her and sing her highest praises! She’s the best!!

  • Dr. Claire has been so helpful. Even as a third time mom, there’s so much I learn from her each time. She helped us early on when establishing latch, helped us find the best way and best bottles to introduce, how to play with baby to promote development, and even helped us with head shape and ensuring we aren’t getting any flat spots. My baby always leaves happier after body work and rests well. So thankful for the services and one on one care. Highly recommend to any family who wants support and intentional care for their little!

  • My 7 week old premie struggles with significant reflux and Dr. Claire was able to make feeding time much easier for us! She is so knowledgeable on all things lactation, baby development, and gave detailed home exercises among other recommendations. The weighted feeds gave me peace of mind that my baby was getting enough for me and growing. Dr. Claire is very personable, kind, and great with babies. We are so grateful for her services!

  • I am so grateful for the care my baby received from Dr. Claire. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that she was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also deeply compassionate. She took the time to thoroughly assess my baby, explaining each step of the process in a way that was both reassuring and easy to understand. I appreciated how patient she was, allowing my baby to feel comfortable and at ease throughout each session. She also gave me practical tips to help with my baby’s development at home. Ever since seeing Dr. Claire my baby has been more relaxed, and we’ve already seen significant improvements in multiple areas. I can’t express enough how grateful I am for the expertise and warmth that was brought to our sessions.
