Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 - Our PT gave Teagan a TOT collar when she turned 4 months. It doesn't help with range of motion or head turning. It helps correct the head tilt. We weren't too sure about using it - actually seemed a little silly at first. But after the first week Teagan had made dramatic improvement in correcting her tilt. She uses it 15-30 minutes at a time, 2 or 3 times a day. Might be something worth asking about. Tammy > > > > My daughter Lainey has been in her DOC band for 3 weeks now.
