▪️Did you ever hear or see a child in a cranial orthotic (aka helmet therapy)?
▫️My oldest Charlotte had to wear one and I created this shirt for her once it was off!
If you ever wondered about this check out some info down below:
▪️ Also called a cranial orthotic, helmet therapy is a type of treatment prescribed for infants to help correct an abnormal skull shape.
About 75 percent of brain growth happens by age 2. To accommodate such rapid development, a baby’s skull is made up of soft plates that gradually harden and grow together. Helmets work by forcing the flat spot to round out.
Most babies wear the helmet for 23 hours a day, seven days a week. Parents can remove it for an hour for bathing and cleaning. How long a baby needs to wear a helmet depends on how early the skull condition is diagnosed.
▫️if you or someone you know is graduating from wearing their helmet we would love to make them a shirt! ❤️ please send a DM to place an order !
