Wait, I'm confused--in the video you showed the torticollis on the baby's left side, but you stretched the right side. Am I stretching the side that the torticollis is NOT on?
Hello. I think my newborn has this and we just noticed it yesterday, (Saturday,) before being released from hospital. She is 3 days old and we have the first visit with pediatrician tomorrow on Monday, in which I plan to bring this to the doctor's consideration. Are these stretches appropriate for a newborn? Thank you so much for your time and help. As a new parent, this information is very appreciated!
Yes, our OTs start treatment and use these stretches with newborns. You might not be able to hold the stretch for quite as long, so just pay attention to how much your infant tolerates.
Hi, I have a 7 weeks old baby with a torticollis on her left side. I would hate to waste time with a physical therapist. I hope I can use this tip and will help: Thanks! 😊
@@mariumlaila7866 Hi, yes I tried it. Her torticollis wasn’t too bad at newborn. She’s 5 month old. This tips helps the neck muscles and I do tummy time a lot that was helpful with the muscles as will. Try it for yourself first. ☺️
My baby is 6 months old she is able to move her head left n right but she is unable to look straight insted her head falls front. Only wen I engage her she keeps her head straight for couple of minutes n again she drops her head n looks down . Is it torticillis? Plz suggest
My daughter doesn't have the tilt so much facing head on like you mentioned, but she can't seem to turn her head to the left without tilting forward when she turns. If she looks in that direction, her head dips forward to where she's kind of looking up to the left, rather than straight over to the left. If that makes sense? It gives the illusion that her head suddenly got so heavy and she can barely hold it up, if that paints a clearer visual at all. Could this still be an indicator of torticollis without her showing the generalized tilt?
Thank you so much for reaching out! If you have concerns about torticollis we recommend reaching out to your pediatrician and receiving an occupational therapy or physical therapy referral to provide the best quality care. You can also contact our office and set up a phone call with Dr. Sarah if you have further questions. If your child has a preference for looking to the left side (which is categorized as right side torticollis) then for the second stretch, you would be focusing on bending the infant's neck to the left hand side. If your child has a preference for looking to the right hand side, then you would focus on bending the infant's neck to the right hand side. It can definitely be a little confusing so if your child is demonstrating a preference turning to one side or a frequent tilt to one side we would recommend seeking further care.
You actually would be stretching the baby the other way as the torticollis was a left torticollis (defined by the sidebend component (tilt to Left) thus you would stretch the left side into ride sidebend - so just the opposite to what is being shown for the second stretch.
My baby is 5 month. mam my baby looking left her head is also flat left her chin is right side ,she can't able to move right side, I m confused please explain me which side I strech
i feel like the way you did the exercises wasn’t for the way you demonstrated where the torticollis was in the beginning of the video so now i’m confused
@@deepthisree3367 within 2 weeks he did by himself....Not to worry some babies take times..My baby was born way too early so I was bit worried on his development...Now waiting for him to sit on his own...
So if baby arches towards the right but the chin tilts towrds the left it a felt torticollis? Also, what type of torticollis does the baby im the video have?
Maybe i am stupid But please explain me in which side do i have to Make the Strech, my Baby has Tension on her side. So i Strech the left side and rotate her Head to the left, correct?
Would it hurt to do these stretches on both sides? My 2 month old has a strong right side preference and turns to the right but I am not seeing a tilt. Is it possible to tilt and turn to the same side?
Thanks so much for reaching out! Based on your infant's tolerance, severity of torticollis, age, etc., we typically holding the stretches for 2-3 minutes and complete them 2-3 times a day. However, it totally depends on your baby's unique needs and so we recommend reaching out to an occupational therapist or physical therapist in your area for an individualized treatment plan.
hi. can you please enlighten me. my baby when tummy time sometimes lift her head sometimes not. She was diagnosed with VSD. 4 months old now. I noticed when we do tummy time she always turn her head on left side. Which side do i need to stretch then? should i stretch her head going to left side or going to right?
Hi, may i know what is the meaning of VSD?My baby seems to have same situation as your baby, she always turn her head on right side whenever we do tummy time. She's 3 months old now
So if my baby has right side torticollis bc she looks towards the left,would I stretch the left or the right ? Sorry im so slow at this lol i just dont want to stretch the wrong side and it be counterproductive.
How long does it usually take to treat it? I have noticed it when my baby was 2.5 months. I've been stretching him and by 4 months he seemed to have gotten better, but then all of a sudden it came back, now he is 5 months and is always tilting his head and all the stretches are not working anymore...
Hello... I have two months old baby... her 1 ear was big and second was little small to they seem different in size... I worried about her to much plz give me some advice to getting her equal ears ...
So for left tilt torticollis, the preferred rotation is to the right. So the exercises/streches should be: Rotation to the left Tilt to the right Is this correct?
My baby was born with it, maybe because he was sitted in my stomarch, but now he was 7-8 monthsn was able to twist his neck d both side but d neck is not perfectly strong n he cant sit strong on his own plswhat do I do.
My baby is 3mnth 3 weeks and 6 day notice my baby suck her fingers and tilt to the left even but her to sit up her head still tilting to the left should i change her sleeping position
My daughter is 8months now. She wasn’t born with this and I have pictures and videos of her with her head positioned appropriately. About two weeks ago I noticed that she Tilts her head more to the right. She rotates the head if I move from one side to the other but I kind of notice a consistent preference of her tilting it to the right shoulder even when she sits down or walks in her walker. I became concerned as any parent would. Planing to see the doctor on Tuesday. In the mean time since she tilts rights should I follow the guide here and try as much stretch practice with her more to tilt left and is it good to make her lay on her left side so that the head or neck will lean left…. Advice.
You can definitely try these stretches at home to release tension in the right neck and shoulder. We recommend the football hold, rather than laying on the floor, just because it gets a deeper stretch!
I can feel lumps on one side of the neck of my baby, she only look to one side when sleeping, when I turn her over in her sleep it takes about 1 minute or less before she turns back to her favoured side ( 2 month old) been doing theese stretches for a week and no progress:(
my 3-month-old son, when he is lying down, he can turn his head to see a toy for example, but when I lift him up, he looks straight and left. While sleeping, he keeps his head supported on the right side. Can I do these exercises for him?
My baby is 6 months now and I noticed it when she was about 3-4 months. I thought it was because her head was heavy too but now I’m thinking maybe not. Has your baby’s head gotten better?
We would recommend speaking to your baby's pediatrician or seeking out a pediatric occupational or physical therapist in your area. It's best for your child to have an individual assessment in order to provide effective exercises for their unique needs!

Thanks 😊 a lot ; after doing this my baby started looking at other side within 3 hrs i am so happy and relaxed 😎
@@amritawilson9146 yeah
Are you stretching towards the side with the torticollis or away from the side with torticollis
Did you stretch the non favored side or the other one? It looked like you further stretched the baby towards the side he is already leaning towards.
on the football hold, my infant favors his right side. So which way should i do the football hold?
Wait, I'm confused--in the video you showed the torticollis on the baby's left side, but you stretched the right side. Am I stretching the side that the torticollis is NOT on?
Its on the opposite side that the baby favors.
How long do you do the stretches to see if it’s working?

Hello! My question is about the second stretch. Which way should we uplift the baby head, on the torticollis side or on the opposite?
Very good question! I'm wondering the same

Stimmt, die THERAPEUTIN ist auch konfus
What strengthen do you have for a 9 year old
My daughter is 4 yrs old .she had a one side torticols is their any exercise please share with me
For the first stretch do you turn the head toward the torticolls side? The way the usually don’t turn?
Correct, the way they have more difficulty turning. So if they have tension on the left side, turn towards the right and vice versa!
@@emergepediatrictherapy can you tell me these two streches are for left Tortocollis Or right Tortocollis??
That happens when my baby is in a sitting position but when he is lying on his tummy he keeps his head up straight. Does it mean he has torticollis
Same here...
Is your baby ok now..what did you do ?
@@amritawilson9146 we are facing same with our baby.. can you please let me know how is your baby doing now
@@deepthisree3367 within 2 weeks he did by himself....Not to worry some babies take times..My baby was born way too early so I was bit worried on his development...Now waiting for him to sit on his own...
Thank you!!
When doing the exercise are we going towards the tightness or against it? My daughters ear seems closer to her right shoulder.
If she has tightness on her right side, you'll want to stretch towards the left to lengthen and release the tension on the right.
So if baby arches towards the right but the chin tilts towrds the left it a felt torticollis? Also, what type of torticollis does the baby im the video have?
Maybe i am stupid But please explain me in which side do i have to Make the Strech, my Baby has Tension on her side. So i Strech the left side and rotate her Head to the left, correct?
This video should help clear up the confusion: th-cam.com/video/aueuF0qUvOA/w-d-xo.html

Are you stretching towards the side with the torticollis or away from the side with torticollis

Your baby might need to be seen by a physiotherapist if it persists after the age of 6 months. I'm in the uk and it's what I've been told.
How is he now
Hello... I have two months old baby... her 1 ear was big and second was little small to they seem different in size... I worried about her to much plz give me some advice to getting her equal ears ...
Current situation??
So for left tilt torticollis, the preferred rotation is to the right. So the exercises/streches should be:
Rotation to the left
Tilt to the right
Is this correct?
Yes!
My child is 1year 3month old.if I try these exercise regularly can he get rid of this.
See a professional ASAP

my 3-month-old son, when he is lying down, he can turn his head to see a toy for example, but when I lift him up, he looks straight and left.
While sleeping, he keeps his head supported on the right side. Can I do these exercises for him?
Do u need to do the stretches on each side of the body
Yes you can, just focus more time on the side that needs tension release!
Can it be corrected after 4months
Natürlich
How long does it go way?
My baby is 7 months and i’ve noticed it was really bad these last couple of weeks, can this be fixed? I use to think her head was just heavy
Hi! I’m sure the stretches can help at any point in time. It doesn’t hurt to start trying them now.
My baby is 6 months now and I noticed it when she was about 3-4 months. I thought it was because her head was heavy too but now I’m thinking maybe not. Has your baby’s head gotten better?
Hi, is your baby ok now?
