Left Torticollis Treatment Exercises for Babies (Part 1) | Stretches to Promote Left Rotation

Babies with Left Torticollis Have a Tendency to Bend their Head Toward Their Left Shoulder (Left Ear to Left Shoulder) and Look Over Their Right Shoulder. To Correct That, We Use Physical Therapy to Teach Them To Do the Opposite: Bend to the Right and Look Over Their Left Shoulder.

So now i'm going to show you another way to help get side bend stretching so in this particular stretch we're going to try and promote that left side bend so the left ear to the left shoulder and a lot of babies like this one because it's in standing and you can kind of carry them around the house in this position you can be in front of a mirror um another caregiver can be in front trying to make them smile or laugh um so what you're going to do is you're going to take one hand you're going to put it on their head um and they're gonna be in a side position like this um with their right arm down and I'm gonna with my hand i'm just trying to get her left ear to come towards her left shoulder so again we're opening up that space on her right neck muscles the ones that are tight um and we are just trying to give her a nice big stretch and usually like i said they like the stretch you can rock back and forth you can walk around the house and let them just really kind of loosen up and get a good stretch

So tilt to the left if they’re tight on the left? I always thought it was the opposite direction?

Looks like the camera has mirrored the image, flipped it. This is a video for right torticollis despite the title

If right neck muscle is tight, then its right torticollis. This video caption is misleading. Please be more responsible when posting such videos.
