FEEDING THERAPY GROUPS

We are offering a Mealtime therapy program which utilises the SOS (Sequential Oral Therapy) and responsive feeding approach to help treat children with feeding difficulties ranging from fussy eaters to swallowing hardship to food sensory issues and much more

This evidence-based program focuses on helping children with a limited diet due to fussy eating, swallowing difficulties or other struggles become comfortable trying new and different foods as well as how to eat if they don’t know how to chew or manage food in their mouth. The program integrates posture, sensory systems, motor skills, behavioural skills, social/emotional development, medical concerns and nutritional impacts.   It is a fun and interactive therapy for children to improve their growth, feeding milestone and relationship with foods
