How do cranial remolding orthoses work?
The cranial remolding orthosis treatment program focuses on redirecting cranial growth toward greater symmetry. This is accomplished by maintaining contact over the prominent areas of the head, and allowing room for growth in the areas of flattening. This treatment has been used by medical professionals since 1979 when Sterling Clarren, MD wrote the first article about the use of cranial remolding orthoses for infants with deformational plagiocephaly and torticollis.
