It's good that you are happy with he shape of your child's head,

that is of course, the most important thing. One thing confused me

about your post, though. Did you say your son wore it for a week

meaning you quit after a week? I ask because some children take

longer to adjust to a helmet/band than others and your son may have

been reacting to fit issues that you could have had resolved at an

adjustment, especially if he was crying when you put it on or took

it off. A lot of pede's don't support banding but I have never

heard it taken to the extreme of calling it cruel and unusual

punishment. In my experience, the vast majority of children adjust

easily to it and don't evennoice that it's there. I am sorry your

son wasn't one of those children.

& gt; & gt; Hi, my name

is and my son's name is Evan. We had Evan's nine & gt; month

ped visit yesterday and finally after six months of being told & gt;

his head would round out by itself, we were given the recommedation

to & gt; contact Cranial Tech. Problem being, the closest one is in

Phoenix and & gt; I simply don't think we can afford the visits back

and forth so often. & gt; I am really looking for some suggestions

here. I looked at the page & gt; that gave resources for places in

Colorado but I don't really & gt; understand who or

> what those people are and do. For those of you from & gt; Colorado

who have made the many trips out to Phoenix, can I ask how & gt; many

visits you had to make and an approximately how much it cost. & gt;

& gt; If there is any way we can have his head worked on without

having to & gt; travel we might have some hope. I think he would

benefit from this & gt; tremendously and I pray that all hope is not

lost but I'm thinking & gt; that although our insurance will cover at

least a portion of this, & gt; unless we win the lottery we may never

be able to afford to do this & gt; otherwise. I am open to any

advice. Thanks for listening. & gt;
