Left Torticollis Treatment Exercises for Babies (Part 3) | Stretches to Promote Left Rotation

Babies with Left Torticollis Have a Tendency to Bend their Head Toward Their Left Shoulder (Left Ear to Left Shoulder) and Look Over Their Right Shoulder. To Correct That, We Use Physical Therapy to Teach Them To Do the Opposite: Bend to the Right and Look Over Their Left Shoulder.
