The vomer is a delicate sail-shaped bone that is located at mid-line along the roof of your mouth. During CranioSacral Therapy inter-oral care, I check in with your vomer to be sure that it is balanced with fluid motion. The vomer bone is often indicated in breastfeeding issues for infants and by following the vomer into its self correcting releases a skilled practitioner can help the infant find his/her natural and best latch.
