Why Balance Oil and not Olive Oil?

For us it comes down to taste! This oil is light and neutral, not bitter and heavy like olive oil.

It’s also amazing for your cells! Here’s why 👇🏻

Your cell membranes are made largely from fats. Balance Oil provides the essential omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids your body uses to help build flexible, functional cell membranes—which are foundational for cellular communication and function.

Songs that your baby may have tension-
🛑 open mouth posture
🛑 clenched fists
🛑 preferring to look one way
🛑 trouble latching or painful feeding
🛑 dislikes tummy time or time in the car seat
🛑 banana or C shaped posture
🛑 red neck creases
🛑 reflux or heavy gas
🛑 trouble settling to sleep

As you can see this routine can be done about anywhere and doesn’t take much time! Your touch should be gentle. We’re not forcing anything. We’re creating more space.

I love doing this before tummy time, and after baths or diaper changes.

Babies can hold tension in their little bodies too.

Here are a few gentle ways we’ve been using to help create more space, encourage movement, and let baby’s body relax.

These can help support feeding, sleep, connection, digestion, comfort, and movement.

Bloating, especially above your belly button.
Burping.
Feeling overly full after meals.
Reflux.
Undigested food in stool.

Sometimes the problem isn’t too much stomach acid…
it’s not enough. I see this often even if you’ve been told you need to take Protonix.

Low stomach acid can impact:

* protein digestion (think smelly t***s, and feeling heavy after meals)
* mineral absorption (chronic iron anemia, vitamin D or B12 folate anemia despite supplementation )
* gut bacteria balance (think gas and bloating)
* bile flow (think wiping 5 + times with stools or greasy stools)
* nutrient status
* energy levels
* hair, skin, and nails (thinning hair, ridges on your nails)

One simple functional medicine home test often used is the baking soda burp test 👀

(Important: it’s not diagnostic, but it can give clues.)

She didn’t need more restriction.
She needed a strategy. Once she had it, she dove right in. She feels more relaxed now, and reassured because she’s seeing changes with her efforts. She’s know her body can heal.

Here’s what was actually going on:
• digestion was shut down
• blood sugar was unstable
• detox pathways were sluggish
• immune system was overactive

So instead of guessing, we:
→ supported digestion
→ opened detox pathways
→ stabilized her metabolism
→ calmed immune triggers

And the result?
Everything improved at once.

This is what happens when you stop chasing symptoms
and start supporting systems.
