What is Synostotic Plagiocephaly / Craniosynostosis?

Button

Synostotic plagiocephaly, commonly referred to as craniosynostosis, occurs when one or more of the sutures in a baby’s skull fuse prematurely.

This can result in an irregular head shape and, if left untreated, can lead to increased pressure on the brain and developmental issues.

Flat head syndrome, or positional plagiocephaly, is more common and occurs when a baby spends extended periods with pressure on one area of the head, causing it to flatten.

While less severe than craniosynostosis, it can still lead to imbalances in head shape and development.

Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive treatment option for babies with flat head syndrome.

By gently manipulating the spine and cranial areas, chiropractic adjustments can help reduce tension and support the natural alignment of your baby’s skull and spine.

These adjustments encourage proper mobility and growth, reducing the risk of developmental delays.

For babies with craniosynostosis, chiropractic care can complement medical treatment, helping manage discomfort and supporting overall well-being during the course of care.
