We were recommended to see Dr. Cheyenne when our baby had a lip and tongue tie. Nursing was so painful and his body was always stiff as a board. I could tell an immediate difference after one session of PT! His hands weren’t balled up into fists and he was so relaxed, he fell asleep while nursing for the first time. After 5 weeks, my pain is gone and nursing is going so much better. You can tell such a difference, even just holding him. Dr. Cheyenne was knowledgeable and SO great with our baby, even when he would get tired or fussy.

Melanie was such a help to me and my baby! She came highly recommended by lots of local friends who I trust, and did not disappoint. She was able to assess us with a really knowledgeable eye, and then match us up with just the right other providers in the area who could help us solve our challenges. She and Dr. Cheyenne at Milestones Therapy and Wellness were a great team and both solved major pieces of the puzzle. We ended up being able to breastfeed pain-free for as long as (baby) wanted!
