Abstract: A process for the therapeutic posturing of infants resides in providing one or more shape retaining cushioning devices having a first surface for receiving at least a part of an infant's body in a given position and one or more second surfaces for inhibiting movement of the given part of the infant's body from the given position, and placing an infant relative to the cushioning device or devices such that the given part of the infant's body is retained in the given position by said surfaces without unduly constraining other parts of the body. Representative therapeutic posturing devices are disclosed.
