In this episode, host Seth O’Brien, CP, FAAOP(D), sits down with Jim Brookshier, MPO, CLPO, FAAOP, cranial specialist and clinical professor at the University of Texas Department of Neurosurgery in San Antonio. Together, they explore the critical elements of effective cranial remolding care—from the importance of early intervention and referral source education to managing heat, ensuring compliance, and navigating the impact of social media. Brookshier shares insights on the narrow window for conservative treatment, practical tips for addressing heat-related challenges, and strategies to support families in maintaining consistent helmet use.
