Re: Helmut vs. Placement therapy-Dave

[Guest guest]

Dave,

How would you rate Brett's severity? THere are severity assessments

in our links section. Unless Brett is extrememly mild, I'd

recommend banding. With the tort, Brett getting older, and having

two other kids, I think that 24/7 repoing will be extremely

difficult for you. There is a Cranial Tech in cleveland, so if that

is where he went for an evaluation, than you should know that

Cranial Tech would give you a very fair assessment and would NOT

recommend banding if they didn't think Brett would benefit. If I

were you I would work now at getting a prescription, even if you

don't end up needing it at least you'll have it for if you do. It

can take weeks or months to get into a specialist, so at least

getting the ball rolling (if you can't get the script from your ped)

will save time later. The sooner a baby is banded the faster and

BETTER correction they will receive. Let us know what happens!
