Torticollis is a postural deformity of the neck involving the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) that is usually present at birth or within the first few weeks of life. It most commonly presents as a head tilt toward one side, and a head turn or rotation toward the opposite side. There are mild, moderate, and severe forms of torticollis, and the earlier treatment starts the better the outcomes. Early identification is key — research shows significantly shorter average treatment times the younger the infant begins therapy. Left untreated, muscular imbalance in the neck and trunk can affect development of appropriate gross motor skills, balance reactions, and facial/head symmetry.

Don’t “wait and see!” If you notice that your baby has symptoms of torticollis, reach out to your pediatrician and a pediatric physical therapist right away!

Idiopathic toe walking can happen for number of reasons (e.g. muscle tightness, muscle weakness, or sensory related). Early PT intervention can help prevent an increased risk of future pain or injuries, or the need for orthotics or surgical procedures related to toe-walking. If your child is walking on their toes consistently, schedule a physical therapy evaluation for a specific plan of care to help your child walk with their heels down!

A flat head or "plagiocephaly" is quite common and develops in infants who spend a lot of time on their backs and like to turn their head to one direction. Physical therapy treatment can help prevent head flatness and improve a baby's head and neck posture. We can even help prevent the need for a helmet if treatment is started early!
Contact our office if you have questions or if you would like to schedule an evaluation.
