Cranial Technologies is the only company in the world completely dedicated to researching and treating plagiocephaly (commonly called flat head syndrome). With over 300,000 babies successfully treated, we are the plagiocephaly experts and the leader in pediatric cranial shaping orthoses.

Cranial Technologies also provides treatment with EarWell ® to correct infant ear shapes without surgery. With over 600,000+ successful outcomes, EarWell ® is a proven, non-invasive treatment option for families.

Our treating Clinicians develop great relationships with our families at every stage of their treatment process.

• Certified Prosthetist-Orthotists & Certified Orthotists are also a strong fit because of their hands-on experience with orthotics and direct patient care.
