Release Restrictions · Retrain Function · Relieve Tension
The National Tongue Tie Centre was founded on the understanding that tongue tie surgery is only part of treatment, not the entirety of it. Our integrated methodology addresses the restriction, the functional patterns that developed around it, and the whole-body tension the restriction has created over time.
This approach brings together the clinical expertise of a Consultant Paediatrician, Chartered Physiotherapists, Nurses, Midwives and IBCLCs - working together in one clinic. We assess thoroughly, prepare you before the procedure, and support you through recovery.

A dedicated team.
