Guest guest Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Here is a place that offers the STAR Band by Orthomerica. It's in Phili. http://www.lawall.com/orthotics.html Here is where I looked to find it: http://www.orthomerica.com/technology/scan_locations.htm#philadelphia Go to Hanger.com (Hanger makes helmets too) and you can see locations near you for them. They are all over so you should have one near you. I guess the nearest Cranial Technologies is in Paramus, NJ. Not sure how far that is from you. But that's another option. Hope this helps!

We are looking to get him a helmet (treating the tort with PT and chiro), only problem is that so far I can't seem to find any centers that offer the helmets anywhere nearby. Is anyone in this group in the Philadelphia area and found a place?Thanks so much!Genevieve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I'm in Cherry Hill NJ (outside Philadelphia) and I have been going to Cranial Tech in Paramus. Its exactly 2hrs door-to-door one way but they are the best. My husband has done extensive research and has found them to have the best success rate. Their helmets are open, just a band around the head as apposed to a fully closed helmet which is horrible in the summer.
