Area of Focus: Feeding

Feeding is one of the most complex aspects of human life. It uses all 7 sensory systems and all the major body systems as well. At Acorn Children’s Therapy, we look at children holistically, not only their mealtime behaviors. We understand that a deficit in any underlying skill can cause difficulties with feeding. We address oral motor skills, sensory processing, as well as the strength and coordination needed for a successful mealtime.

When your child has difficulty with feeding, the stress can be unmatched. At Acorn, we work closely to empower families to alleviate mealtime pressures and encourage joy at the dinner table.
