Who Does Banding In the State of Maine or Nearby?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone? I am new to group here. My twin daughters have

bradycephaly from sleeping on their backs however in pictures from

when they were first born it looks like they had some of it then too.

They have been ruled out for cranial stenosis. I can self refer with

my insurance and need to find out who does banding in the state of

Maine or in a neighboring state. Time is running out to get them

banded as they are 14 months old now. Since they sit and stand most

of the time some of it has been corrected but you can still really see

the deformity. I would hate to have my girls go through life

deformed. Any information that you have would be helpful.

Thank you so much!

Hi Jen,

my daughter had brachy and wore a starband from age 5 to 10 mo. I am

glad we got started early, but even with older babies I would band to

get as much correction as possible. I can't help too much with ME. I

know Boston has some places, but I've heard mixed reviews here from

what I remember (you can search the old messages online) and some

people choose to drive to Conn to go to Cranial Tech.

Good luck with the decision.
