Guest guest Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 honastly i cant see anything wrong and i think it would be wrong to use the band with such small measurments. if im honest and i dont want to cause offence but my daughter measures 27mm, and even with the starband she will not get to single figures, but im honastly not that worried about it, once in the moderate range it is unlikely that any asymmetry will be noticable. try to relax about it, its easy to become a bit head obsessed but quite frankly i think your being rediculous. > > Hi, > > I want to say thank you for all of the help you all have provided. I've been looking back on photos from when my daughter was younger and truly notice a difference now in my daughter's head. However, I looked at recent pictures and it looks to me like the condition is relapsing despite my efforts. Based on the numbers, she's in the mild range (CVA 3.5mm), possibly moderate due to ear alignment (5.5mm off). My husband disagrees and refuses to band. Am I crazy? Do these photos look like she's improving or not? Her album is K in the photo gallery. I tried to provide good photos, but she no longer sits still. > > Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. > > > > PS- I'm the one that took things into my own hands and sought the care of a chiropractor for my daughter around 6 1/2 months when no physician would write a prescription. Also, based on previous numbers, the orthotist recommended not banding. Therefore, we have not banded her at this time. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I think she looks really good. I can understand what you might be seeing, just because I'm so used to scrutinizing heads, but honestly, she looks great, better than my son after 2 bands actually (and yes, I'm the only one who notices his asymmetry as well and that's really only when his hair is wet). I think our eyes can easily play tricks on us, and I've been obsessing over my son's head for over 3 years now (off and on - sometimes I've fine with it, and sometimes I worry). Any asym you see is really very mild and I personally wouldn't band at this point. Jake-3 (DOCBand Grad 9/08) > > Hi, > > I want to say thank you for all of the help you all have provided.
