This article is a review of the international literature looking at management of congenital muscular torticollis of the newborn baby. A meta-analysis of eight studies compared the effects of different physiotherapy techniques for this pathology. Passive stretches remain the treatment most widely practiced. Other techniques such as micro-current or massage have been studied. It is difficult to establish a rehabilitation protocol but a combination of techniques may be interesting.
