Jhoanna Rae
Hi, I'm [Your Name], and I've spent [X years] working with infants and families navigating torticollis — and I know firsthand how overwhelming that journey can feel for parents.
I created this course because I kept seeing the same thing happen: families getting a diagnosis, leaving the clinic with a single sheet of exercises, and then struggling at home — unsure if they were doing it right, unsure if it was working, and unsure who to call. That gap between clinical care and home life is exactly what this course is designed to fill.
My approach is practical, parent-centered, and grounded in what actually works in real homes with real babies. I'll walk you through everything I wish every parent knew from day one — the signs, the conversations, the exercises, and the mindset to get through it. You've got this, and I'm here to help every step of the way.
