dear Hessa,

There is a lot of information on the internet. By googling chest fysiotherapy babies reflux I came up with:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...v089p00435.pdf
Chest physiotherapy, gastro-oesophageal reflux, and arousal in infants with cystic fibrosis -- Button et al. 89 (5): 435 -- Archives of Disease in Childhood

I am not specialized in this field. I do think this should help. From what I read, the head down position is not favourable, preference for lying the children flat in the cases of reflux.
Good luck with your search. Try Pubmed and the other scholarly sites.
