What do you know about breastfeeding? Do you feel adequately equipped in your clinical practice to support women and/or children during breastfeeding?
In this webinar, 3 healthcare professionals* will discuss the integration of breastfeeding knowledge into musculoskeletal care for breastfeeding women and/or their children.
Among other topics, you’ll learn about early detection of torticollis and therapeutic management of newborns and very young babies, as well as interdisciplinary work and the reasons for referral if you work with babies, pregnant women or breastfeeding women. The possible management of breast pain (such as blocked milk ducts or functional pain), which goes far beyond the simplistic application of an ultrasound protocol, will also be covered.
*Collaborators: Marie-France Blais, IBCLC breastfeeding nurse consultant and Kary-An Fournier, pediatric physiotherapist.
Outline :
- Integration of breastfeeding support into perinatal clinical practice and notions to be explored further

Very interesting! Makes you want to know more!
An interesting and relevant introduction to a little-known area of physiotherapy expertise in the mother-baby dyad. The case history helps us to understand the issues and possible intervention methods. Interdisciplinary approaches are put forward in a concrete way. This webinar provides an opportunity to familiarize yourself with the vocabulary and concepts that will be covered in subsequent training sessions. Lots of resources and references.
Nice introduction to the subject but confirms that 1h is not enough to learn about it. Lots of information and great resources, thanks!
Gives a nice overview of the possibilities of PEC Physio for mom and baby.
Very interesting case story! Allows us to concretely visualize the positive impact and what we can bring to the breastfeeding dyad in our field of practice. The webinar is a relevant introduction, as a foretaste of the training courses on offer and to visualize our interest in furthering our knowledge on the subject.
