Guest guest Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 sorry, it is my mistake. All measurements are in cm! attached is the corrected file.

I'm a little confused, was the beginning asymmetry (A- only 1.7 mm? Is his main issue brachy? If so, I'm not sure how to work out the cephalic index from the numbers provided, maybe someone else can help there. But the asymmetry at least seems minimal, and yet there was improvement (to 1.0 mm).

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 OK, that makes more sense! So according to those measurements he's gone from about 17mm (1.7cm = 17mm) to 10mm in 4 weeks, which is great! Even if there is a +/- margin of error, that's still showing promising improvement. Do you SEE the improvement in his actual head shape as well?
