Guest guest Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 my 7 month old daughter with palgio/ tort just saw dr. john graham this week and was given a prescription for a cranial orthotic. my daughter also has moderate hypotnia (low muslce tone) that contributes to her plagio. dr graham gave me " the list " of providers - and i asked him if there were any providers he preferred and he said " they're all good " - i didn't realize that each of the providers offer a different type of orthotic - i'm wondering if some types of orthotics are helpful for different types of deformities? she has a CI of 77% and DD of 1.2cm - mild frontal bossing. our PT says she has more experience with the more traditional type helmet ( like at lerman & son ). i noticed some people had bad experiences at that place. PT thinks it would be better for her head shape. not sure what to do i read the 'files' section of the board and that was helpful...we have an appt at cranial tech in pasedena next week. has anyone been to stellar prosthetics? any feedback? thanks Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
