  This is my second time coming to see Dr. Dan. He helped me recover from meniscus surgery  and now I am getting therapy for shoulder pain, due to arthritis and inpingement syndrome. Dan is knowledgeable, thorough, all while being friendly, warm and entertaining.  I was asked by my doctor if I needed recommendations for physical therapy, and I refused.  I knew exactly where I had to go...back to Dr. Dan.

Cranial Helmets for Babies

If your baby is diagnosed with Infant Flat Head Syndrome and is between the ages of 3 and 18 months, your clinician may prescribe a cranial helmet. This is a non-invasive treatment to correct flat head and allow your child’s head to grow naturally. Helmets are custom molded to encourage the skull to become more symmetrical and/or proportional.

A cranial helmet does not squeeze the baby’s head into shape, but rather redirects growth and provides the space into which the flattened portion of the skull can grow.

Early intervention starting between three and eight months of age yields the best results. This strategic time period captures rapid cranial growth, and the helmet directs the growth towards greater skull symmetry and proportion. Babies’ heads are soft and malleable and even gentle external forces, whether met in the womb or in baby’s daily routine, can cause misshaping.
