There is also a commentary to the AJOT article.

http://ajot.aotapress.net/content/63/3/296.full.pdf

One interesting quote in the commentary is "...we must consider the positive and negative impact of any sensory-processing pattern on participation. If intense sensory processing patterns enable a child who is gifted to solve problems better than other children, then we would not want to make the intensity go away."

Is the author saying an OT might unwittingly make kids un-gifted by changing the very processing patterns that make them gifted? That seems scary but unlikely.

cdfox, My son also had torticollis but was born at 34 weeks. He was discharged from the hospital at 35 weeks and had completed about a month of therapy by the time of my original due date. After about a three month course he was done and we had almost forgot about torticollis until the OT intake form a few months ago.
