KST A to Z

Head banging - 18-month-old

Kevin Johanson, DC

Beaumont, Alberta, Canada

He's an 18-month-old boy with a completely black and blue forehead (raised about 1/4"). He's hitting his head on the floor every day since he could crawl.

After the first visit his mom reported that he banged his head for two more days after and then stopped doing it. So far there has been no head banging for three weeks. His mom tells me he is exhibiting no temper tantrums either.

On his third visit this little guy walks back to my adjustment room, points and asks for his "turn." For me it's the first time an 18-month-old has asked for an adjustment.
