I have been fitting custom molded helmets since I started working for
the University since 1992 and have had excellent results with the outcome
of the helmet therapy. The materials that we use to make the helmets is
3/16 aliplast liner with 3/16 polyethylene shell. The helmet is
completely enclosed except for the obvious cut outs for the ears, eyes,
nose and mouth. The reason I am posting this on line is that I would like
to know what other facilities and or Practioners are doing and would like
to exchange fabrication techniques to attain a more advanced model for
the helmets ( the method we use here has been the same since the early
70's).
