Re: got his hanger helmet yesterday

December 9, 2006

Hello. had PT from about 4.5 mo until she was 10 months old.

(once a week). I also would do some stretches during diaper changes

and stuff too. Usually they tell you to keep up with the stretches

until they are walking well or at least until they are 1, I

believe. 's tort was considered to be resolved at 10 mo, but I

still sometimes do some stretches with her. She thinks it's funny

and I want to make sure she doesn't have any future issues. She

sometimes tells me her neck hurts, so I stretch her and she feels

better. (not sure if that is even tort related though).
