The good news is, babies with
plagiocephaly typically respond very well to noninvasive treatments, such as repositioning techniques, which parents can practice at home, and the DOC Band, a custom cranial helmet that redirects baby's natural growth into a normal head shape.
Unfortunately, the impact of positioning on development is usually only discussed with new parents when problems arise -
typically Flat Head Syndrome (Positional
Plagiocephaly) or Torticollis.
