Understanding flat head syndrome (plagiocephaly & brachycephaly) and how to prevent it naturally can help you make an informed decision. While cranial helmets are effective for some cases, there are also proactive steps you can take to support your baby’s healthy head development—without immediately resorting to a helmet.
