Curved feet or CLub foot commonly called require a meticulous planning and treatment and regular monitering untill the child is 3 -4 years. good manipulation and casting and corrective shoes put properly will help you avoid surgery on your kid. and most importantly it will make your child disability free once starts walking

If I knew what country you were in I could give you a referral to a specialist in manual (by hand) correction. You can search for yourself here: http://icpa4kids.org/Find-a-Chiropractor/
