Abstract
This article provides a review of the literature on the conservative management of congenital muscular torticollis. Variations among studies are found in physiotherapeutic regime, definition of outcomes, and results. All authors, however, report good (mild facial asymmetry, tilt or range restriction) to excellent (full neck range of motion, no facial asymmetry) outcomes for the vast majority of patients who receive conservative management of congenital muscular torticollis. Overall, fewer than about 16% of those treated before one year of age require surgical intervention.
