Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 , I haven't heard of this product yet. Where are you located? Because I have no background info. on this one, I would recommend you do a bit of research on it. Be sure it is FDA approved, some insurance companies will not cover a device that is not. Be sure the orthotist is experienced in the treatment of plagiocephaly, using this device. Ask how many babies they have done and what the results were. Ask if there are any parents you can talk with about thier experience with it. Ask what formal training they have had. That sort of thing. You will also want to know if it is a passive or active band/helmet. This can make a difference in the amount of correction and the length of wear time. How old is the baby and how severe is the plagio? Sorry if these are repeat questions, I have been sick. Please let us know what you find out and if you decide to go with it, keep us updated so we can add the info to the database for others to use.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Here's the info from her posting on this website... I assumed she and other parents have tried this. Is this the case? Infant Cranial Interface Liner by Kingsley Mfg. Co. Unique garments for interface protection - wicking Cool/Max fabric designed for protecting skin while infant is wearing orthoses to treat positional plagiocephaly and other head shape deformities. Only a few brands/types of helmets and bands are used in conjunction with helmet liners. Please ask your ortho if this product is compatible, as well as being part of the treatment protocol, of your baby's brand of helmet or band. http://www.kingsleymfg.com/KMFGStore/Catalog_Product.asp? dept_id=D8A87A42-2414-43AB-B193- 3BABCCA7B2C7 & product_id=ICI & advmode=True --- In Plagiocephaly , " stripes6060 " <taime@o...> wrote: > > Carol, > Christie has info on it, I believe.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Hi, No, Christie hasn't used this product. She's our repositioning moderator. She does A LOT of research for our group, she's awesome. Why are you looking to use a liner? Is your baby having a bad reaction to the band/helmet? > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > I was wondering if anyone on this board has used this? Did you > like > > > > it?
