What is Deformational Plagiocephaly (DP)?
Plagiocephaly, Brachycephaly (Flat Head) and Scaphocephaly.
Say hello to Lucy! ๐๐
Lucy is working with us to treat her #Asymmetric #Brachycephaly, which is where signs of both Plagiocephaly and Brachycephaly are present. (Swipe to see a great profile shot of Lucy that shows a typical brachycephaly head shape ๐๐)
Lucy had her initial scan in mid October, and was fit for her #SnugKap at the end of the month! Check out the great photos of her at the clinic ๐ We love when families take photos of the process, especially cute moments like when their baby is wearing the scanning sock ๐ถ So adorable!
Lucy has been wearing her SnugKap now for just a few weeks, but we are so looking forward to sharing more of her progress with you as time goes on โจ Thank you to Lucyโs mom @lindsayhafso for sharing all these awesome photos with us! You have been doing an incredible job of documenting the whole process ๐
For anyone who is interested in following along on Lucy's journey, we encourage you to check out @lindsayhafso 's Instagram Highlight called 'Lucy's SnugKap', which has a ton of great information, and gives you a look at the treatment journey through a family's perspective! (A must-watch for anyone who is wondering about treating with us at @pediatricheadshape clinics!)

Special delivery! ๐ We received the cutest package this week from our dear friend Carolina of @fisioterapiabebe in Sรฃo Paulo, Brazil! ๐ง๐ทโจ
Carolina works with babies to treat infant head shape asymmetry and torticollis, and her clinic also uses #SnugKap cranial bands for their treatment programs! ๐ถ ๐
These beautiful handmade dolls are given as a gift when a baby is finished treatment and has 'graduated' their program ๐ฅณ Each one has a SnugKap and a little @fisioterapiabebe logo on their shirt. How adorable are they?! We are blown away by how creative and beautiful they are ๐
You might notice the date on the letter: Carolina originally sent this package to us in February of this year, but due to Covid-19, it was not able to be delivered and was returned all the way back to Brazil. We are so lucky that it finally arrived at our clinic here in New Westminster Canada, over nine months later ๐ฅฐ ๐จ๐ฆ What a journey these little dolls have had!
Thank you Carolina and @fisioterapiabebe for the beautiful dolls! We are so happy to be working with you, too ๐

Happy Friday ๐ We are kicking off the long weekend on a high note: sharing some incredible treatment progress with you!
We always recommend that families with head shape concerns for their babies come in for an assessment sooner rather than later ๐ถ ๐ The prime window to start treatment is 4-6 months of age, and this photo is a perfect example of why!
This baby came to our Edmonton clinic when she was 4 months old for an initial assessment. Her CVAI and CR values put her in the severe range for Brachycephaly, and the moderate-severe range for Plagiocephaly. She was fit for her #SnugKap in early September, and after just FOUR weeks of treatment, her head shape has already corrected to normal ranges for both Brachycephaly and Plagiocephaly!! ๐ฅณ Her CVAI went from 7.0% to 1.7%, and her CR went from 92.7% to 84.4%. We are absolutely thrilled with her progress so far ๐๐
The reason why we prefer to treat infant head shape asymmetry at this age is that in order for treatment to be successful, rapid head growth, sutures of the skull being open ("soft spots"), and consistent orthosis wearing are necessary. Babies at 4 months old have incredible growth potential to harness, so correction typically happens faster than with older infants! (This is not to say that we cannot achieve amazing results after this age - we simply get the fastest and optimal results during this timeframe.)
Do you have questions about your baby's head shape? ๐ถ We would love to hear from you! We are happy to give you more info about our practice and treatment programs ๐ You can call us at 1-844-944-3237, or visit our website (Link in bio!) to learn more.
Have a great long weekend everyone! ๐๐ฅงโจ
