Netcoaching
Receive daily personal coaching from our leading tube weaning experts who will help you teach your child to eat without a feeding tube right from the comfort of your home. In this internet-based program, you and your family are able to stay at home while our team of experts works with you via our online coaching platform. To date, more than 500 children have participated in this very program and over 90% have been fully weaned off the tube.
Eating Schools
Interact in-person with our complete therapy team and other families in a 2-week intensive course that teaches your child to eat without a feeding tube while receiving support online before and thereafter. We offer our Eating Schools at several locations worldwide to make it as accessible as possible to families like yours.
Play Picnics
Get a sneak peak into how our medical team teaches children to eat on their own in these relaxed, fun picnics, held in cities across Europe. Play Picnics are a specific group therapy based on the “Graz Model of tube weaning” that aim to support tube dependent and children with other early eating behavior disorders to make the transition from enteral to oral nutrition and to extend their eating skills.
Tube Optimization Program
Have your individual coach, companion and escort for your child and family through the medical world with a focus on minimising unnecessary actions and evaluate as well as coordinate necessary examinations and future interventions.
Receive help and assistance for your child and family to recover emotionally, physically and practically from intensive care and make the transition of devoted and highly specialised caregivers for a medically fragile child to becoming “normal parents” of a special child.
Learn To Eat
Experience professional medical and therapeutic support on a month-by-month basis using our online platform as you help build your child’s eating skills while staying in your familiar environment. In this program, we work with a variety of early infant feeding disorders such as picky eating, infantile anorexia, feeding disorders related to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and others. Our goal is to dramatically improve your child’s openness towards a wide variety of foods and increase the daily intake of different foods in the long-term.
