Re: will be casted this month

Crista,

Cranial Tech doesn't put air holes in their bands. You just have to

dress him lighter when it gets hot out. If he's having a problem with

sweating you can take his band off for a minute a few times a day and

wipe his head and the inside of the band down with a towel. Let us

know how the casting goes, bring a lollipop!

Christa,

Thats great! Good luck w/the casting! The summer isn't as bad as

you think, you just have to take it off and wipe it off if you're

going to be outside. We had a/c inside and didn't spend too long of

periods outside. CT doesn't use air holes at all. Let us know how

the casting goes.

Hi Crista,

My son was banded in August and was just over 6 months old when he

got it. We are in Michigan and it was really hot and sticky humid

when he got it. In the beginning, their heads sweat a lot as their

bodies adjust to the heat so you need to wipe the bands off regularly

and towel off the sweaty head too. When the temps get high and

humid, just dress PJ is light as possible clothes and you will be

just fine!

,

I notice that you are in Michigan. Me too, and I'm interested in pursuing banding options. May I inquire what part of Michigan you are in and/or what CT location you are using?

Crista,

Congratulation on getting your appointment with Cranial Tech. I

know all of the hard work you did with repo will mean less to

improve with the DOCband, and at 's age, he should receive

excellent correction!

Would you let us know how his casting goes in a week?

Take care,

Christie (Mom to Repo'd Remy)
