Guest guest Posted March 15, 2002 Report Share Posted March 15, 2002 That is terrific! It makes this whole thing just that much easier when you don't have to worry about insurance hassles! Your twins will be in really good hands with the people at Cranial Tech, and should still receive some really good correction, they just may have to wear the bands longer than others.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2002 Report Share Posted March 15, 2002 Yippe!! I am so happy to hear they will cover the bands & at 100%! Please don't feel that you waited too long to begin the treatment. I am glad you're going ahead with the DOCbands. It is true, that you would probably have had better success if began a bit younger, but that doesn't mean you won't get any results. My daughter who had severe plagio, began her DOC treatment at 11.5 mos old and we still rec'd very good correction in 4.5 mos time! I'm sure your twins will improve as well Please keep us posted on their progress. Good luck! Debbie Abby's mom DOCGrad MI > I have only posted a couple of times here over the past two weeks.
