Involuntary or habitual head tilting involves positioning the head at an angle, rather than maintaining an upright, neutral posture. This deviation from a normal head position can range from subtle to pronounced and may be intermittent or constant. Various underlying factors can contribute to this phenomenon.
Understanding the reasons behind this head posture is significant for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. Identifying the root cause facilitates targeted interventions and can prevent potential complications associated with persistent abnormal head positioning. Furthermore, it contributes to improved quality of life by addressing any associated discomfort or functional limitations.
