Flat Head Syndrome Treatment

Also known as cranial head remoulding.  A custom made helmet or band is worn by the little one and gently channels all growth correcting the asymmetry and improving the overall head shape.

Plagiocephaly

Flattening on the side of the head.  Associated movements include a shift forwards of the ear and a bossed forehead on the same side as the flattening.

Brachycephaly

Flattening to the back of the head.  Associated movements include a bossed or prominent forehead, flexed temporal lobes (Above the ears), a reduced neck line at the back of the head and a wider than normal head shape.

Scaphycephaly

Flattening to both sides of the head.  Associated movement include a prominent forehead, a prominent occiput and a narrow head shape.

Physiotherapy

Specialising in acute injury management, pre and post operative treatment as well as injury prevention.  We cover all the major insurance companies and accept private or self referrals.

Biomechanical Assessment

Using state of the art RsScan force plate analysis, a full analysis of the forces and pressures are recorded and explained as well as a full objective assessment.  Orthotics, braces, techniques, exercises, postural advice can all be given if required.

Bracing and Support

Working alongside the world leaders in bracing and support for functional and compressive braces as well as braces for osteoarthritic or soft tissue ligament stability on all joints.
