Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Posted January 16, 2008 i don't think the plagio and doc band has caused my son's 'delays' but i definitely think the torticollis he has did!! he sat up on his own at around 10 months, walked at 15 1/2 months, and has had all sorts of feeding/speaking issues. at 3 1/2 years old he is in s/t and we are going back to o/t and we continue with our traditional osteopath for omt. torticollis affects SO much - walking, sitting, running, eating, talking, and so much more. we also found he had vestibular issues, tactile defensiveness and oral motor problems. he looks and acts like a 'normal' kid and most people have no idea what we have gone through - and i don't know how much the plagio has affected him - not sure if we can ever know that - but from what i have learned about tort - it definitely can delay development. it sort of a snowball effect too - what may seem minor now - may become a bigger issue later in life which is why we are doing everything we can for early intervention.
