Today we're talking about a condition that is surprisingly common in babies, but little known - torticollis.Alessia Testa had already suffered mastitis following a painful latch on one side by the time her son was six weeks old, but it was her insistence that her son had a head tilt that led to him being diagnosed and treated. With the help of physiotherapy and some simple changes at home, Luca's neck muscles have stretched and strengthened, and he now feeds well as an 18 month old.We're also joined by Nicola Walker, an infant feeding specialist, and senior physiotherapist, to help answer the science questions, and explain how you can get help if you have noticed head tilt or facial asymmetry in your child. We discuss the breastfeeding implications of torticollis, sternocleidomastoid tumour, and plagiocephaly - some big words that can feel intimidating, but support is out there.My new book, ‘Supporting the Transition from Breastfeeding: a Guide to Weaning for Professionals, Supporters and Parents', is out now.You can get 10% off the book at the Jessica Kingsley press website, that's uk.jkp.com using the code MMPE10 at checkout.Follow me on Twitter @MakesMilk and on Instagram @emmapickettibclc or find out more on my website www.emmapickettbreastfeedingsupport.comResources mentioned - @babybegin on Instagram@kinactive_kids on Instagram https://www.cwgenna.com/This podcast is presented by Emma Pickett IBCLC, and produced by Emily Crosby Media.

Boo! This week join Sheila and Sara as they cover torticollis, cranial deformity and arthrogryposis. They start off this episode with torticollis and cranial deformity. Last season, they did an entire episode covering the torticollis CPG. That was the most comprehensive episode we have done and we definitely feel that it covers the full depth of torticollis. The book chapter leans heavily on the CPG so a lot of this information will be repetitive with that, but that is ok! Repetition is good. They then move on to cover arthrogryposis through the life span.

After being born through a c-section because of a breached (feet first) position and umbilical cord wrapped around her neck, Taylor was moments from death and spent a few weeks in the NICU. She had a physical therapist briefly as a baby to help with a condition that she would have called "Torticollis".Though she spent her whole life with this, she wasn't aware of it until her 30s while having a conversation with her mother about the pains she was experiencing. She also discovered through her chiropractor that she has a slight degree of scoliosis. These issues affect her from top to bottom and she's actively trying to work on the issues and pay attention to how they affect her day-to-day as well as her weightlifting and other fitness endeavors.In this short episode, Taylor discusses how valuable it is to know of or learn about these issues with your body. What was your birth story? What injuries did you have growing up? What injuries have you had recently? What about your posture from moment to moment?It would also be great if you could pay attention to these things with your children and let them know more about what their body has gone through. It can really help them as they get older.Tune in and share your thoughts by writing a review and or tagging @thepursueyourpotentialpodcast on Instagram / social media.

When thinking about physical therapy, babies may not necessarily come to mind. But in the case of congenital muscular torticollis patients, PT can have a profound impact on their motor development into early childhood. Meredith Caverow, PT, DPT, and Kristen Kouvel, PT, DPT, PCS, physical therapists at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, offer primary care pediatricians the top three takeaways from their new clinical pathway: how to detect and distinguish between the three main types of torticollis, including common physical exam findings as well as anomalies to look out for, and why that distinction is important; when to consider referrals for further evaluation by a physical therapist and what parents can do with their child at home for an early as possible resolution. This podcast is for general informational and educational purposes only and is not to be considered as medical advice for any particular patient. Clinicians must rely on their own informed clinical judgment in making recommendations to their patients. ©2023 by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, all rights reserved.
Do you think your baby has a flat spot on her head? Does it seem like he always lays his head to the same side when laying down? Your baby could have positional plagiocephaly or torticollis, or both! These conditions are common for infants and both concerns are worth seeing a doctor about. They are big words, but so much simpler than we realize. Torticollis is Latin for “twisted neck” and just means an infant may prefer twisting their head to one side or the other. Plagiocephaly is the flattening on an infant's head due to repeated twisting and lying flat. In the second episode of the Young & Healthy infant series, Dawn Rothchild, advanced practice nurse in the division of plastic surgery and Dr. Amy Mischnick, pediatric physical therapist, join us to tell us more about these two conditions. We discuss causes, treatments, and prevention for both. Dawn and Amy also share how the two conditions can occur simultaneously and provide advice for next steps if you are concerned about your baby.

Join Dr. Kim Tran and me as we break down the incredible ways seeing a chiropractor during pregnancy can make all the difference in the world. At least your world!Dr. Tran is a pregnancy and pediatric Chiropractor from Houston, TX. She also does functional nutrition, focusing on gut health and hormones. She has 4 kids, 3 girls, and a boy. From Dr. Tran: "Chiropractic care during pregnancy looks at the power, passage, and passenger. The power is nervous system health and making sure power to the uterus is nice and strong. That way, the uterus can function at 100% and contract/relax properly when it's time. The passage is about Mom's pelvis and its surrounding structures. It's so important that the spine and pelvis are in good alignment during pregnancy. A misalignment in the pelvis can cause instability and surrounding muscles/ligaments to be pulled in an uncomfortable direction. This can cause discomfort during pregnancy. Babies are super smart and will go wherever and in whatever position is comfortable for the baby. Baby is the passenger. We always want to ensure mom is aligned so the baby is in the best position for birth. Then after birth, it's always good to get the baby checked as well. Baby has been in utero in awkward positions for months. During the check, I'm looking to see if there are any Torticollis, primitive reflexes intact and strong, oral restrictions, cranial shape, range of motion, and misalignments. Checking babies is super gentle; any adjustments are with no more pressure than you'd check a ripe avocado or tomato. Getting babies checked during the first year of life is great! I like making sure babies are developing well and hitting all developmental milestones. Then if they're not, what's going on there and how to address it?"Find a Webster Certified ChiroYou can find more about Kim here:Follow @dr_kimtran and @integratedchirowellness on Instagram.Her website is: www.fulshearkatychiro.comResources: Grab a Free Pregnancy/Postpartum Checklist BundleConnect w/ Trish: On InstagramOn FacebookOn YouTubeOn Pinterest On TikTokFor more pregnancy & birth education, subscribe to The Birth Experience on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Next Steps with LNM:If you are ready to invest in your pregnancy & postpartum journey, you are in the right place.

At 4 months old the pediatrician diagnosed my son with torticollis & plagiocephaly.The PT suggested he get a helmet (band) to correct his head shape. As well as therapy stretching on his neck. Have you ever heard of torticollis or plagiocephaly?As a first-time mom, I felt a lot of guilt, sadness & even more anxiety.This lead me into a downward spiral and telling myself... "This is my fault! I should have done more tummy time! I should have caught this sooner! I'm such a bad mom!"No parent ever wants to hear something is wrong with their child. No matter how big or small it may be, it's still big to those parents at the time they are living the situation. Does your child need or have a helmet? Have you seen babies with helmets and wondered why they wear them?I share our story on the episode, in hopes to encourage the mamas going through it or the family members that don't understand.CONNECT WITH HOST:Website: www.mamayouredoinggreat.comIG: @kendahlyanezWant to get connected with other mamas like you?Join the CommunityEpisode 24- Kimmy & her Twins Helmets

Guest Dr Brita DeStefano, or you may know her as "Progress Through Play PT". Dr Brita specializes in baby physical therapy for Plagiocephaly and Torticollis. Dr Brita will teach us more specifically about WHAT Torticollis is, how it might look, symptoms, and what can be done about it. Torticollis is common in babies and you may have a light bulb moment if you have had or known a baby who exhibited a lot of signs of tension, arching or doing the C shape posture. We often think of torticollis as a preferred posture, or tense neck and having a feeding preference. We learned so much with Dr Brita and want to do a part 2 to talk about more specifically about baby bodywork and what to do after a frenectomy when things are not resolving yet or the reflux hasn't gone away.

In this episode of Food, Freedom and Fertility we are having a special episode to focus on Plagiocephaly and Torticollis with Dr. Brittany McGeary. Brittany is a pediatric physical therapist who specializes in torticollis, plagiocephaly, and developmental delay. She owns Grow Physical Therapy, a mobile pediatric practice whose purpose is to spread awareness about torticollis and plagiocephaly and advocate for early referral and intervention. Early referral is essential in order to prevent a helmet as well as gross motor delays. Brittany provides treatment in patient's homes and offers virtual consultations. Her passion is to empower parents through education and treatment to allow your little one to flourish. This episode came to fruition because one of our hosts, Caitlin Johnson had noticed her 3rd baby moved his head with preferences and would not turn to the left. Caitlin shares the signs she experienced and how she advocated for her baby and learned about his diagnosis of plagiocephaly and torticollis. Torticollis is a condition caused by tightened or shortened neck muscles. The typical presentation is a head tilt to one side and a rotation. Dr. Brittany helps listeners understand exactly what is torticollis and where it happens. She shares a few initial signs such as baby not looking in one direction or never wanting to to turn their head to one side. She also discusses explains what Plagiocephaly is and that typically Plagiocephaly and Torticollis present together 90% of the time. Dr. Brittany walks listeners through potential risk factors that could heighten the risk of Plagiocephaly and Torticollis with container use (swings, doc a tots, and other such items), the fetal risk factor increases with a first born, multiples birth and longer babies due to the positioning of the baby in utero. Also, the use of forceps or suction devices can up the risk of developing the conditions. It is very important to address it Plagiocephaly and Torticollis immediately. There are important windows that can change the treatment plan. Babies can start screening for these conditions as early as 2 days. If the conditions are not treated there are cosmetic features that could develop but also run over into gross motor milestones. Dr. Brittany dives deeper into what that could look like. Remember to keep and out for equal and symmetrical movement, particularly neck and head and also take notice if you baby seems fussier when they face a certain direction. Treatment can assist with both conditions and Dr. Brittany's helps listeners know the timeline that would best optimize the likely hood the baby could gain normal range of motion the treatment can range between physical therapy such as stretching and strengthen. Also, assistance in your home for environmental adaption: crib placement, position during sleeping purposeful play ideas. If you are not in the Kansas City area are looking for an in-person Doctor such as Brittany you will want to search for a PT that is a pediatric physical therapist but do note that you can successfully work virtually as well. If you would like more information on Dr. Brittany McGeary, PT, DPT be sure to check her out via the links below. As always remember to advocate for you and your baby and trust your mom intuition.
