Hi OTs! SLP here - big fan of your work :) I’m curious what your field thinks about oral tie releases as they relate to body tension? These procedures are pretty controversial in the SLP world, so I imagine it’s the same for you. My husband and I are considering having our son’s lip tie released. Feeding is clumsy on the bottle and I had to stop attempting to breastfeed because he couldn’t latch properly, but he’s gaining weight fine for now. He’s 10 weeks old. Our OT recommends the procedure and I am on board, but my husband is still not convinced. There’s such mixed information online, with little to no evidence to support its efficacy.
