Zack

Zack was born 7 weeks premature, and from the start struggled with his tummy when he slept. He didn’t so much do the screaming thing all the time as a lot of colicky babies do – but he tossed and turned restlessly at night waking up crying and pulling his legs up all the time. We tried all the so called “magic” potions, but had absolute no effect. We even tried Donatal but stopped after a few days as (a) it wasn’t helping and (b) it had such negative feedback re SIDS that we were at our wits end. I decided to try Dr La Cock’s techniques and it was the best decision we had made! Zack had 3 or 4 sessions, and the change in him was remarkable. We stopped all medication and he was so much calmer. I was amazed continuously at how much wind was trapped there! I couldn’t thank you enough for what you did for Zack, and for our sanity!

Luke

Being first time parents with a brand new baby we were horrified when Luke’s paediatrician diagnosed him with colic at the very young age of 13 days! He was put onto Donnatol, and we ended up with a quiet, but very sleepy baby. Speaking to other mothers in a similar predicament, and hearing how their babies basically “slept” for 8 months while being on medication for colic, we decided to stop the medicine after only three days.

The problem with the medicine was that it didn’t take the problem away, it only made it better because the baby would be sleeping, and not feel the cramping from winds, etc. After trying Dr la Cock’s technique, Luke’s colic was markedly better, and all we needed to do was carry on with some very basic massage techniques, which you could hear working while doing it. The day he had his first session he was as relaxed as a big old snake baking in the sun! He slept for hours, even missing a feed!

Luke is now 15 weeks old, and from time to time if he gets a bit windy, all I need to do is use the technique once, and he’s happy. There is nothing more heartbreaking that having a tiny baby screaming because of discomfort, and not being able to make it better.

Joshua

Joshua was 4 months when he started getting terrible stomach cramps. His stomach felt like a rock it was so hard. He would mostly get them at night time. We didn’t even consider that it could be ‘colic’ because we have read in all the books this only occurs in babies under the age of three months. Joshua would wake up a number of times during the night screaming, which is abnormal. We felt this all started when he had antibiotics from a ear infection. Within two sessions he was sleeping much better and the cramps subsided.

Sparrow

I have used only the free portion of your web site but it was enough to help Sparrow feel much, much better.

Liam

Thank you for everything that you have done for Liam, the difference in him is amazing.

When I brought Liam to see you he was seven weeks old and although he was pulling his legs up and moaning I wasn't sure if he had colic because he wasn't screaming after he fed which was what I had been told he would do if he had colic (people spoke about children with colic screaming for 3 months). I could see (and hear) that he was in pain, especially in the evenings and we were giving him a mixture of gripe water and Telement drops with every feed. After a few days I realised that we should rather try to fix the problem than keep giving him medicine.

Everyone spoke so highly of you, including the paeditrician who had brought her own child to you when he had colic, so I had no hesitation in coming to see you, I only wish that I had done so sooner. The treatments made a difference straight away and Liam even enjoyed the exercises that you gave us to do at home. You were so kind and gentle and you spoke so nicely to him, I am so glad that we came to see you - I can see why everyone has such good things to say. I have already advised a friend to go onto your web site to get the info she needs to help her daughter and I will continue to recommend you and your treatment to anyone who has a baby that is suffering.

Ayanda Mbindela

My baby slept right through the night from the very first session! And the winds that came out…..!

Nicollete De Lapelin Dumont

Nicollette was suffering with serious reflux for about ten weeks with severe contractions for about 3-4 hours each evening. The exercises and stretches have made a big difference and she has no more reflux.

Baby Schreuder

Hi, thanks so much for helping our little boy get rid of his winds and cramps. He’s been an absolute star since we saw you and the mother and father are getting lots of rest.

Niall

Unbelievable – worked from day one! I must admit that I didn’t really think that it was going to help, but I was desperate!! The exercises were actually very easy to do and started to relax Niall almost immediately. Thanks for a great site.

Sr. Sue’s Mother and Child Clinic – Parklands

Colic and reflux are more common than people realise. All babies cramp, it is just the degree that differs. Some will have full colic, where baby screams continually and some just niggle at certain times of the day. Either way it can be very stressful watching you baby suffer. Most of us should try alternative treatments before medicating such small babies, if at all possible.

Dr La Cocks techniques are gentle and uses intense massage and stretching to help alleviate any spasms that may be present in the gut. The treatment helps a huge number of babies with not only cramps and reflux, but also helps alleviate other problems like constipation.

Adriano de Souza

Adriano was grunting, moaning and groaning continuously. He is no longer contracting and is now ‘farting’ all the time without the struggle!!

Skyla Koch

Skyla was suffering from all the usual colic symptoms - crying, pushing, moaning, grunting, contracting, etc. The exercises helped from the first session!

Amber De Jager

The colic symptoms are very much improved. Thank you so much…

Francois Britz

Francois was a very unhappy baby who we struggled to ‘burp’. The exercises have made a big difference, with burping being much easier, much less reflux and he is sleeping easily. Lots of ‘winds’ come out during the exercises.

Rebecca White

Rebecca suffered with colic since birth. She moaned, groaned, contracted, had reflux and hiccupped excessively. At six weeks, in desperation we tried the Colic Release Technique. The diaphragmatic release exercise relieved almost all the symptoms and she was much better in just one week.

Kai Raath

Kai had an intense, high pitched cry, arching of the spine, scrunching up of face and clenched fists. This was almost continuous from about 1 month to3 and-a-half months! After two treatment sessions, he was having regular bowel movements, drinking without fussing and generally, a much happier, contented baby. From over the counter medication to natural drops to prescription medication I found this treatment by far the most effective.

Megan Kelly

Megan was a frank bridge baby and had colic. She was very windy and struggled to get her winds out. The exercises helped a lot.

Sissel Bernadette Abotnes

Sissel was one week old when she started with colic symptoms, especially crying and struggling with wind. We started with colic stretches when she was three weeks old and they have made a big difference. She is now a much happier baby!

Ashleigh Cinnamon

Asheigh experienced lots of winds and hiccups. At night she moaned and groaned a lot. After two sessions, this stopped. She has slept better at night and is a lot more relaxed after a feed. Her groans are gone and the hiccups last only a few minutes instead of half an hour!

Jorja Van Leeuwen

Jorja had extreme cramps, with severe crying and other colic symptoms. She started to improve after just the second session when something ‘released’. She had a very runny tummy and was then much more content and started to make happy, gurgling noises like a baby should!

Kiran Bloom

Kiran wasn’t scraming but moaned and groaned all the time. He never burped well and this made things worse. He is now much better, burping easily and sleeping right through the night! Thank you!

Mia Bezuidenhout

Mia was crying inconsolably, and moaned all the time. She Arched her back a lot and refluxed after eating. We think the problem started because of an allergy to the formula she was on. After trying 4 different types we started with the “Colic Release” Exercises. They helped fantastically and she was much better after 10 days.

Gabriella Neethling

Gabriella was having all the usual symptoms of colic and was screaming each night from 9PM until about 2AM. She was very unhappy. The treatment ha made a big difference and she is much better now. The severe crying has stopped.
