    Abstract/Notes Objective: To present a series of case studies where patients experienced hypolactation after giving birth and to discuss how subluxation of the cranium and vertebrae may interfere with the normal neuro-hormonal regulation of lactation and the role of the chiropractor in the reduction of subluxation and re-establishment of structural integrity.

    Design: Case Series

    Setting: Private Practice

    Results: Chiropractic treatment consisting of specific chiropractic spinal adjustments and craniosacral therapy was successful in resolving hypolactation in all three cases so that the establishment of a full nursing relationship was possible between both mothers and their infants.

    Conclusion: Neurologic competence of the mother is as important as that of the infant in establishing a successful nursing relationship. In these three cases chiropractic adjustments and craniosacral therapy corrected the subluxation complex restoring normal neurologic function.
