Integrity of CT (not a bash, don't worry)

[Guest guest]

Kerri:

Just as Niki's & 's replies to you, I personally think CT is a

great company with the child's best interest in mind. Of course,

they make money by selling their band, but I have also heard of

parents who were told their child's head shape was too mild for a

band.

I also went to the Chicago CT for Abby's treatment. They were an

amazing group of professionals who really know their stuff.

If it would make you feel any better, could you email our group a

photo of 's head for us to evaluate?? We'll be more than

happy to give you our 'expert' opinions!

Dear Kerry,

While I don't have a child with plagio, I do have dealings with

Cranial Technologies. I sent out a message (post) for help with an

insurance appeal for an employee that I represent, along with my

office number.

A CT rep called me the following day and offered all CT research,

news articles, and expert help. Whether or not the child I am

representing had a CT product or not, was not even an issue. What was

at issue was, that there was a child in need of a band, the insurance

company wouldn't pay, and CT CARED to help, regardless of financial

gain. And by the way, the child did NOT have a CT product.

I have no financial interest in CT or any affiliates. I am merely

relaying to you, my experience with their integrity (which is

absolutely un-questionable in my mind) to help ease your mind.

Hi Kerry,

I was told by CT that my daughter will not need a second band even

though I was almost insisting on one. They told me that her head

shape is very close to normal and she would not benefit a lot from

wearing a second band.

To be honest with you, I was a little bit surprised because I did not

expect an answer like that. I thought they would sell it to me

without any hesitation. No, not CT. Just like other members of this

group I believe they are honest and child's interests are in first

place.
