Soft, attentive care to support easier feeds and a more comfortable little body after milk.
In brief
Dr Dominique Boudet, Osteopath D.O. in Dubai, offers gentle sessions that may help ease the tension linked to baby reflux and regurgitation. Working softly around the diaphragm and digestive area, he supports comfort after feeds. Osteopathy accompanies, alongside and never instead of, your pediatrician's care.
Baby refluxReflux can bring frequent bringing up of milk, arching during or after feeds, discomfort when laid flat, hiccups and unsettled sleep. Some babies seem hungry yet pull away from the breast or bottle mid feed.
Gentle osteopathy considers how the diaphragm, tummy and upper back move, and how your baby feels after milk.
Dr Boudet works with very light cranial and visceral touch around the diaphragm, stomach area and neck. Nothing is forced. Your baby stays lightly dressed and close to you, in a calm, unhurried setting.
These sessions suit babies whose regurgitation and discomfort are affecting feeding, settling and sleep. If your baby refuses feeds, is losing weight, vomits forcefully or seems in real pain, a medical opinion comes first, and osteopathic care then takes its own place in the follow-up.
Yes, the touch is extremely gentle and suited to infants. Dr Boudet uses only soft contact, with no forceful movements, and speaks with your pediatrician whenever the situation makes it useful.
Babies can be seen from the first weeks of life. The approach is always adapted to how small and delicate your baby is. If unsure, a quick word at booking helps confirm the right timing.
It varies from baby to baby. Some parents feel feeds are calmer after one or two gentle sessions, others prefer a short follow up. Dr Boudet will suggest a reasonable plan for your child.
Osteopathy does not cure reflux and cannot promise a result. It gently supports comfort and ease around feeds, and works best alongside your pediatrician's advice on feeding and positioning.
