Happy Friday 🙌 We are kicking off the long week

Happy Friday 🙌 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 👶 💕 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!! 🥳 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 👏👏

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? 👶 We would love to hear from you! We are happy to give you more info about our practice and treatment programs 😊 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! 🍂🥧✨

The health and safety of our incredible families and staff is always our top priority. We know that this year has been unpredictable, but we want to reassure you that we will always be here to support you and your baby in their head shape treatment journey 👶💕

In the spring, we had to make some modifications to our practice as COVID-19 regulations changed, and we are prepared to enact similar protocols in the coming months if necessary.

Please read through these slides to see how we are preparing for safe alternatives to our current practices; if it is necessary to make any of these changes, we will let you know as soon as possible.

Thank you for your support and understanding! We love working with you and your little ones, and will do everything we can to keep their treatment programs healthy, safe, and continuing smoothly 👍❤️
