Breastfeeding/mastitis
WHAT TO BRING:
Breast pump or baby for feeding/pumping following your appointment
Any doctor’s referral or reports that are relevant
WHEN SHOULD I VISIT:
Anytime at all while breastfeeding or weaning
THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND is used for the treatment of mastitis by physiotherapists at Joint Dynamics. Evidence has shown it to be a successful non-invasive treatment for the inflammatory symptoms of mastitis.
Ideally you will aim to pump or feed within a few hours prior to your appointment and again 15/20 mins following your appointment. (We are happy for baby to be with you in the appointment)
If possible we recommend booking 2-3 sessions on consecutive days. Your initial appointment will be booked for 1hr and then shortened if the time is not required (price adjusted). Follow up sessions are booked for 30 minutes.
