Guest guest Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Even if you start treatment in a few months he will still be young enough for good results. I hope you'll see a lot of improvement in the tort, but I know it must be frustrating for you. -christine sydney, 4 yrs, starband grad > > > > We went in for our son's scan on Tuesday for them to tell us that they can not band him right now due to his torticollis. He is 5 1/2 months old and has been going to PT since he was 3 1/2 months old for his torticollis. They said to continue PT until he is 7 months and them come back to CT and see if we can band him then. Well by then the main window of opportunity is over! I don't understand why they can't band him with his torticollis. My ped thinks it would help him if they band himm now. My husband refuses to go anywhere but CT for a band even though I have a Hanger place 20 minutes from my house (CT is 25 minutes). He believe they are the best at what they do (even though he has no experience with anywhere else and is going by what others have told him). Anyone else been through this also? I'm not impressed so far with the CT in ndale, VA as the lady there says " I'm not a doctor BUT this is what I think you should do or this is what I think > your child has, etc. " Well since you're not a doctor, should you really be telling us things to make us worry more as she is stating the worse case scenerio with torticolllis and what can happen in the long run. I understand that but stop saying " I'm not a doctor but... " I guess that's just irritating to hear. > > > > Sorry for the babbling...I'm just upset with CT at this point. I don't want to miss the opportunity to band my son at the right time. CT recommended a new PT for me to try in Fairfax called Physiotherapy Associates. Has anyone had experience with them? I have an appointment next Wednesday and I'm hoping for a miracle and they will say go ahead and get your son banded while we work with him. > > > > Thanks for listening. :-) > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
