Re: Re: Hanger helmet after 12 months?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

There is osteopathy, PT, CST, chiro with cranial work, and NCR. We've

tried them all

over the past 15 months. All helped our toddler before age 2. Only

the NCR really helps much for our 5 year old. The key is to find a

highly qualified practitioner with plagio experience.

Best,

Kathy

say he would treat her, who felt a slight tightness in her neck. My

husband is wary of chiropractic.
