How do I know if my infant needs a cranial remolding orthosis?
There are certain signs that may indicate that your infant needs a cranial remolding orthosis. However, please keep in mind that some degree of asymmetry in the skull is normal for everyone, so it is actually the magnitude of the asymmetry that indicates whether treatment with a cranial remolding orthosis is warranted. If you recognize that your infant’s face is not symmetrical, their head is higher or wider than normal, or that there is flatness on the back side of their head, you may want to visit your physician for further assessment.
