At Feel Good Chiropractic & Wellness, we see many mothers struggling with breastfeeding challenges. These aren't just physical problems - they affect the precious bonding time between mother and baby, sometimes even threatening the breastfeeding relationship altogether.
That's why we're particularly proud to be Iowa's first provider of laser therapy for lactation support. Since introducing this service, we've helped numerous mothers overcome painful breastfeeding obstacles with a gentle and effective solution.
The laser therapy we offer uses specific wavelengths of light that penetrate breast tissue, increasing circulation and reducing inflammation naturally. The treatment is completely painless - most mothers describe just feeling a gentle warmth - and takes only 2-5 minutes per breast. Mothers can nurse immediately afterward with no downtime.
We're finding this approach particularly effective for clogged ducts, which often resolve within 24 hours after treatment. We're also seeing excellent results with non-bacterial mastitis, nipple pain, and even some cases of low supply concerns.
What excites us most is the quick relief our patients experience. Many mothers come to us after days of trying traditional approaches without success, or referred to us by an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant). After just two or three laser therapy sessions, they're able to nurse comfortably again.
One mother who visited our Ankeny clinic had been dealing with recurring clogged ducts that were making breastfeeding more difficult than it needed to be. After just two laser therapy sessions, her recurring blockages stopped completely. Her relief meant she could focus on enjoying her baby instead of enduring pain, and that is a huge win for everyone.
We believe breastfeeding can be a stressful (but rewarding!) process. It shouldn't have to be made more difficult by suffering through pain. If you're experiencing discomfort while nursing, we'd love to help you continue your breastfeeding journey comfortably and naturally.
