For Parents
Is This Your Child?
A lot of parents land here the same way — researching quietly, late at night, before reaching out to anyone. Here’s what often brings families to Dr. Sue.
Tight Neck or Head Tilt
Torticollis — a tight neck muscle that causes the head to tilt to one side.
Flat Spot on the Head
Plagiocephaly, often showing up alongside limited head movement.
Behind on Milestones
Rolling, sitting, crawling, or walking later than expected.
Feels Floppy or Stiff
Low or high muscle tone — either end of the spectrum is worth a conversation.
Born Early
Premature babies often need extra support catching up on motor development.
Limited Arm Movement
Brachial plexus injury or Erb’s palsy from a difficult birth.
A Genetic Diagnosis
Conditions like Down syndrome that affect motor coordination and strength.
