Re: Too late to start at 15-16 months?

Hi ,

If your son is still using a helmet, does that mean you're already on

a second band? And if so, does cranial tech charge another time for

the new band? Regarding the costs, are there any extras to expect

aside from what cranialtech says on the package of treatment?

About the doc, I think he's cynical since my daughter is already older.
