Nancy’s Gently Home Positioning Program for Torticollis

After treating approximately 1,000 babies with Torticollis, I created my own positioning program that I give to each and every family. With the case of Torticollis, it is best treated when parents follow specific positioning throughout the day. You, the therapist will be working with the child, but the parents are often left with only a handful of stretches and they are sometimes even painful.

What I created were simple guidelines based upon the side of the Torticollis and the age of the baby. There are four groupings:

• Right Torticollis 0-6 months
• Right Torticollis 7 months and older
• Left Torticollis 0-6 months
• Left Torticollis 7 months and older

I have found that when parents get confused about how to mitigate this persistent posture, the pictures and succinct explanations clear it up. When families use this material throughout the day, and they are gentle with it, the baby usually improves quickly.

Please enjoy the gentle positions and encourage parents to never force the child. A gentle tactile invitation is much more helpful and goes a lot further than forceful stretches.
