What Is Congenital Muscular Torticollis?

Congenital Muscular Torticollis, or CMT, is a condition in which a baby is born with tightness or contracture in their sternocleidomastoid muscle, which is located in the neck. According to the National Institutes of Health, it affects around 2% of all babies born in hospitals in the United States. With proper physical therapy, the condition can go away in as little as six months, but if left untreated, it can lead to issues, such as flat head syndrome or delays in motor skill development.

“Parents' Guide to Congenital Muscular Torticollis is a comprehensive and empowering guide crafted to help you face the challenges of CMT,” explained a spokesperson for Community Health and Education Services. “This transformative resource is structured into sixteen chapters, each strategically designed to provide knowledge, support, and practical strategies for the unique journey of your child.”

What's In The Book?

The sixteen chapters in the eBook cover a wide range of topics related to CMT. The first few chapters are intended to be more educational, teaching you about the causes, symptoms, and treatments of CMT. In later chapters, Dr. Phillips-Williams discusses topics such as advanced medical interventions, surgical options, and the intricate connection between CMT and Sandifer Syndrome.

The eBook delves into some of the practical aspects you will need to consider as you and your baby traverse the obstacles of CMT as well. For example, it looks at the role of orthotics and repositioning programs and assesses how beneficial they can be. Moreover, the author provides suggestions for how everyday items such as toys can be used in creative ways to help treat CMT.

In addition to providing information and practical advice, the eBook also recommends some simple exercises you can do with your baby to try and promote physical development.
