Helmet therapy is primarily used to treat various forms of cranial asymmetry:
- Plagiocephaly: Characterized by a flat spot on one side of the head. - Brachycephaly: Involves a flattening at the back of the head. - Scaphocephaly: A condition where the head is longer and narrower than usual.
These conditions can result from external pressures often related to the baby's sleeping position or prolonged time spent in car seats or strollers.
