How to Prevent and Improve Plagiocephaly
Techniques to prevent or improve plagiocephaly are most effective in the first 3 months when the head is growing rapidly and the bones are still very soft. Alternating head positions, counter positioning, encouraging baby to look to the less preferred side and increasing tummy time are all effective in preventing or improving head shape. Tight neck muscles associated with a head tilt known as torticollis will need physical treatment.
