Re: ear offset increasing with band treatment - thoughts?

[Guest guest]

Thanks, all. She has had torticollis, and we've been in PT for

several months. As a matter of fact, we just got released from the

PT, and she said we don't need to come back unless the tilt returns.

It may be due to the placement of the points on the computer

readout. Maybe that's what he meant by error.

One doesn't seem to be higher than the other...one looks like it is

more " forward " than the other. But perhaps it hasn't gotten worse.

I'll ask him about it in more detail on our next appointment.

Thanks for your thoughts.
