If your child has been recommended for a helmet or even if you have questions about a helmet, give us a call.
The helmet is designed to modify the way an infants skull grows - the helmet does not squeeze the head, it modifies where the head grows and hollow areas begin to fill in. The flattened area becomes more round and the head becomes more symmetrical.

An ankle foot orthosis (AFO) is used to improve walking patterns by reducing, preventing or limiting movement of the lower leg and foot and by supporting weak muscles. They are also used to maintain joint alignment, accommodate deformity and to help reduce spasticity.
A knee-ankle-foot orthosis (KAFO) is a custom-molded plastic shell with contoured metal uprights and a variety of knee joints designed to provide support and correction to the knee, ankle and foot. This orthosis can improve mobility, body alignment and posture, increase bone and muscle strength, and enhance independence and self-esteem.
