pressure such as inutero constraint, back sleeping, etc, or
encouraged by torticollis, prematurity, etc. Join us for

Plagiocefalia
Descripción: Página destinada a las
familias que buscan una solución para el problema de las
deformidades craneales de los recién nacidos y lactantes, en
especial la plagiocefalia posicional. Dos de los principales
objetivos del grupo son conseguir que desde recién nacidos los
bebés sigan pautas de prevención adecuadas y empezar el
tratamiento ortopédico lo antes posible cuando dichas pautas de
reposición y ejercicios fracasan.
Los especialistas en la materia constatan que la mejor respuesta
al tratamiento activo con banda ortopédica tiene lugar entre los
3 y los 9 meses de edad y que no tratar activamente la
plagiocefalia más allá de estas edades puede comportar una
deformidad permanente. A partir de los 2 años de edad sólo es
efectiva la cirugía.
Página esponsorizada por los centros españoles de Cranial
Technologies Inc.™ la empresa fabricante de DOC band®, líder
mundial en su campo.
