If tongue and lip ties were just a tissue problem—just a physical “cinch down” tissue that’s too short—why do so many babies still struggle after they’re released?
In this episode of Motherhood Aligned and Assigned, Dr. Serena Coffman and Dr. Veronica Schiltz dive into the neurological piece most providers are missing. Even with bodywork included, babies still aren’t coordinating the suck-swallow function and still have tension throughout their whole body after revision. They break down the hierarchy of healing (central/autonomic nervous system → neuromotor → gut/immune), why all tongue tie babies also seem to have reflux, and the C1/C2 tension that affects fascial tension through the jaw and tongue AND disconnects brain communication to those structures. Dr. Serena shares the frustration: do they seriously need a revision, or do they just have so much fascial tension that chiropractic care needs time first? Discover why Boise providers won’t do revisions without bodywork first, the MTHFR gene mutation factor, and why toddlers who had unsuccessful revisions are now showing up with sensory issues, speech delays, and emotional dysregulation. Fight-or-flight = tight. The revision won’t stick if they’re stuck in stress.
