Feeding therapy helps infants, toddlers and children with a wide array of eating and feeding difficulties which may include one or more of the following:
- Reduced or limited intake
- Food refusal
- Food selectivity by type or texture
- Dysphasia (swallowing difficulty)
- Oral motor deficits
- Delayed feeding development
- Food or swallowing phobias
- Mealtime tantrums
Addressing feeding problems may be important for preventing or eliminating problems regarding nutrition and growth.
