Special Members-Only Course

In-Person SOT® Three Categories Seminar (Charleston, SC – Dec 5-6, 2026)

In this 12-hour, 2-day seminar Drs. Rosen and Watson will guide you through the evaluation, clinical reasoning, and hands-on procedures used to identify and address Category I, Category II, and Category III patterns. The seminar draws from DeJarnette’s category system and emphasizes locating the primary subluxation pattern rather than simply treating the patient’s presenting symptoms.

    “I took this course to gain insight and proficiency in caring for my pediatric patients.

    Having taken this program, my three takeaways are:
    1. The hands on time, setting up on other participants, really helps to solidify the concepts being taught
    2. There is so much more potential for neurological improvement with cranial adjusting than I had ever realized, having this new skill is transforming my practice
    3. Taking the class in person rather than online is incredibly beneficial. Not just having the opportunity to get hands on, but also being able to network with other like-minded chiropractors and discover other ways to implement these techniques into practice is tremendously helpful.

    Professionally, taking this course has helped me be able to serve my patients even better than I already have been. I recently used several of the cranial adjusting techniques on a young girl who had been fighting a virus, fever, congestion, cough, etc. for several days. Her mother said within an hour of the adjustment she was up and playing as if not sick at all.

    I would recommend that anyone wanting to grow a pediatric practice take this course. The insights and techniques that are taught here have helped me become more well-rounded in my care. The extra tools in my toolbox help me have the confidence to care for a broader base of health concerns. One of the reasons I would highly recommend taking this course is because patients appreciate the value of continued education. I had one mom say, “I love that you keep learning. It shows that you really care about our kids, you really want to help them heal and be their best.” It doesn’t get better than that!

    Thanks, this has been a great course. I really appreciate what I learned in the cranial course specifically. I have applied many of the techniques already, and keep adding new ones each week. Can’t wait for the last course.”

    “I decided to take this course because my office is becoming very populated with children. While I have taken numerous pediatric seminars, I still felt like I needed more hands on and a more intense program. When signing up for the program, my goal was to have a better understanding of the pediatric spine through exam and treatment and to feel more confident in doing so.

    My three takeaways:
    1. If you want hands on, this is it! I love all the hands-on time.
    2. If you want to go back to your office with more confidence and understanding of the pediatric spine, this is the program for you.
    3. If you do not know where to start, start here! There is so much information but each seminar coming back, I have a better grasp of the techniques, and I am able to implement things slowly into my practice.

    This program professionally has allowed me to see patients with confidence that I am doing a proper examination and technique that is very specific to my findings. Personally, I feel since starting the seminars in January I am taking my skills to the next level which is very rewarding for me personally and I know my husband is beyond proud of the time and effort I have put forth to do so. I have been doing a lot of palate work since the second seminar series and have seen a lot of improvement with post tongue tie patients and those who are having a hard time latching. Breastfeeding success has improved greatly. This is simply amazing as many women struggle and give up and to see them and their baby thriving is so rewarding.

    Yes, I would highly recommend this program to others. Fresh out of school or years into practice, I feel like the information is delivered in a way that everyone will learn and benefit. This course is intense; I am not going to put it lightly. But I appreciate all the hands-on and help we have while in seminar. The notes are so clearly delivered, and the slides allow me to go home and review without feeling like I need to be back in the seminar to further my learning. If a chiropractor wants to treat children, I feel this program is an absolute must. I wish it was taught in school! I think it is great and I appreciate all your hard work in teaching others! I have been to many seminars where I go thinking I am going to learn, and it is mostly stories about the instructor’s personal success stories, and I leave feeling like I almost wasted my time. Not here! Thanks again! See you soon!”

    My three takeaways:
    1. A deeper understanding of pediatric brain and nervous system development. The program has allowed me to dive deeper into understanding the developing brain and nervous system in children. It has broadened my perspective on pediatric chiropractic care and reinforced the importance of acquiring the appropriate knowledge and skills to care for this unique population, especially during the early years of development.
    2. A clearer and more structured approach to pediatric assessment Through this program, I learned how to approach pediatric assessment in a more structured way. Understanding the flow of assessment, knowing which indicators to look for, and connecting my clinical findings have given me clearer direction in determining the next steps in patient care. Rather than assessing without a clear direction, I now have a better framework to guide my clinical decision-making.
    3. Recognizing the unique needs of pediatric patients Children are not simply smaller versions of adults. Their developmental stages, communication abilities, and clinical presentations require a different level of consideration. The program has reminded me of the responsibility involved in caring for pediatric patients and the importance of adapting my assessment and approach to each child's individual needs.

    Professionally, this program has allowed me to dive deeper into understanding brain and nervous system development in children, broadening my perspective on pediatric chiropractic care. It has helped me appreciate how crucial it is to acquire the appropriate knowledge and skills to care for this specific population, as children have unique developmental needs that require a thoughtful and individualized approach. The program has motivated me to continue refining my assessment and adjusting skills so I can provide more precise and appropriate care for my pediatric patients. It has also reinforced my belief that caring for children requires not only passion, but also a commitment to continuous learning and developing the clinical competency needed to serve them well. On a personal level, this journey has made me more aware of the responsibility I carry when caring for children during such important stages of their development. It has encouraged me to become more intentional about the knowledge I pursue and the skills I develop, reminding me that I should never stop learning when there is still so much more to understand about the developing brain and nervous system. It has also strengthened my desire to become a chiropractor whom parents can trust to approach their children's care with knowledge, thoughtfulness, and genuine dedication. Ultimately, this program has reminded me that professional growth is not just about becoming more skilled, but also about becoming more responsible and purposeful in the way I serve my patients and their families.

    One memorable experience was with a 1-year-old patient who initially crawled by dragging only one side of her body. After applying the cranial adjusting technique I learned from the program over several visits, I observed encouraging changes in her crawling pattern. She progressed to army crawling and subsequently began attempting to crawl on her hands and knees. This experience further motivated me to deepen my knowledge of pediatric chiropractic care and continue developing my clinical skills so I can better support the children and families who come to my practice.

    Yes, absolutely. I would recommend this program to chiropractors who want to deepen their understanding of pediatric chiropractic care and develop greater clarity and confidence in their clinical approach. One of the things I value most about this program is the clear framework it provides for pediatric assessment. Learning the flow of assessment, understanding which indicators to look for, and connecting clinical findings to the next steps in care have given me a clearer direction when working with pediatric patients. Rather than simply learning new techniques, this program has helped me better understand how to approach a patient systematically and make more informed clinical decisions. I believe this program is especially valuable for chiropractors who want to move beyond relying solely on their existing knowledge and develop a more structured, thoughtful, and individualized approach to pediatric care.

    I am truly grateful for the opportunity to learn from Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson through this program. One of the most valuable things I have gained is a clearer framework for pediatric assessment, which has helped me better understand what to look for during an assessment, how to identify relevant indicators, and how to use my findings to guide my clinical approach. As a chiropractor, I believe it is important to continually challenge myself and expand my knowledge, especially when caring for population with unique developmental needs. This program has reminded me that providing appropriate pediatric care requires more than learning adjusting techniques, it also requires a sound understanding of child development, a structured assessment process, and the clinical skills to apply what we learn thoughtfully. Thank you, Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson, for sharing your knowledge, experience, and passion for pediatric chiropractic care. Your teaching has helped give me greater direction in my clinical practice and motivated me to continue refining my skills so I can better serve the children and families who place their trust in me.

    This program improved my understanding of paediatric spinal and cranial assessment, also giving me the skills and techniques to address it, and provided me with a more comprehensive approach to pediatric Chiropractic care.

    It has given me confidence in taking care of paediatrics.

    I tried the sphenobasilar and sinus fruit jar technique on my niece who had sinusitis and allergy flare up after catching the flu, after the first round of treatment, her stuffy nose and allergy gradually cleared up

    Yes, I would recommend this program. It is a very useful technique.

    Thank you for the past 10 months!
