Cranio Osteopath (C0) and LOC 1st review

A big day for Finley's head with two appointments.

We saw the CO today. A bit of a weird experience. I can't see it looked like she was doing much. She just seemed to be holding his body and then his head. When she first started I was going to ask her when she was going to get on with it! I know a lot of people say great things about osteopaths in general so I shall reserve judgement. It will be difficult to see whether this is effective or whether it is the helmet therapy but it could be both so we are going to continue for while. She wants to see us once a week for the first month. She reckons Fin has a lot of movement left in his skull which is good news. She says she may also be able to improve Fin's immune system which will hopefully help with his susceptability to cold viruses.

First review at LOC was very quick as we had been up there on Saturday. Things are moving in the right direction. There has been a half a percent decrease in the severity percentage but this has been brought about by only 1 mm. His head width measurement remains the same with a 1 mm increase from front to back. Here are the statistics:

Age months
12.5
Head Circumference (cm)
49.6
Percentile
95th
Head Width mm
153
Head Depth mm
146
Severity
104.79%

Saeed had a look inside the helmet. You can really see where it is holding his head and the foam at the back where we need the growth is not at all disturbed.

We are up at LOC again on 16th February for our 2nd review.
