A method is disclosed for treating/preventing positional plagiocephaly. The method includes the steps of: (a) providing a flat, horizontal first surface and a second surface adjacent the flat surface, the second surface being inclined such that a first side of the second surface is higher than an opposite second side; (b) placing and resting the infant on the first and second surfaces with the infant's head on the second surface and with the infant's shoulders and back on the first surface; (c) after the infant has finished resting, removing the infant from the surfaces; (d) tilting the second surface in an opposite direction such that the first side of the second surface is lower than the second side; (e) when the infant is ready to rest again, placing and resting the infant on the first and second surfaces with the infant's head on the second surface and with the infant's shoulders and back on the first surface; and (f) repeating steps (a) through (e) until the infant reaches an age at which the infant's head is no longer susceptible to positional plagiocephaly. In this manner, the infant sleeps on different sides of its head each time the infant is placed on the surfaces. |
