Is your child having significant difficulty during mealtimes?
Sometimes, kids experience feeding difficulties and food aversions that prevent them from consuming enough food or liquid to gain weight and grow normally. Feeding therapy can help!
Who is feeding therapy for?
If mealtimes are stressful and your child is displaying one or more of these behaviors, they may need to see a feeding specialist:
Trouble accepting and swallowing different food textures
Throwing tantrums at mealtimes
Refusing to eat certain food groups
Refusing to eat any solids or liquids
Choking, gagging or vomiting when eating
Oral motor and sensory problems
Gastrostomy (g-tube) or nano-gastric (ng-tube) dependence
Still not sure if your child needs feeding therapy?
