What is Torticollis?
Torticollis, is latin for “twisted neck”, and in its simplest form – that’s what it is. It is a common condition that affects some newborns. Most of the time the problem is mild and it clears up on its own. However, it occurs on a spectrum and if your child is not progressing, you may need to try some intervention. The intervention is centered around positional changes to encourage your baby to use his/her own neck muscles more evenly. The exercises will typically be done daily at home.
