Praise For: Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development
Hear directly from our students about the benefits of our program.-

Dr. Maybelle Heng
The main purpose of taking this class is to understand more about cranial distortion and the impact on childhood development. Also I hope to learn more about the normal development of an infant through the early years. What to look for in terms of the abnormality.
That 90% of the brain cells are formed during the first year and the adult myelination is present by the end of the second year. That’s quite mind blowing to me. That the first 6 years of the childhood programming will pretty much affect that child for the rest of his or her life. It makes me reflect on my own and my siblings’ childhood. That common abnormal in child cranial distortion should not be overlooked or brushed off as normal.
The knowledge that I know now will impact how I will look for my own child in the future and professionally it gives me more confidence to advise clients that just have their own child about their development.
Checking and explaining to my new mom and the information about her child development was really appreciated by her. She commented that her pediatric wasn’t as thorough as me. And as a result, she refers more clients in.
Thank you so much for taking time putting this course together. The information is really cool and I don’t see it in other places.

I enrolled in this course to help me identify cranial facial distortions and patterns more effectively and to be able to explain to parents why they should seek additional consultation.
My three takeaways are:
It’s important to understand the relationship between structure and function.
Parents should trust their instincts and seek professional help if concerned.
The first year of life is so important for neurological development.
I will look at my clients differently and try to match structure with function more successfully.I gave a parent specific examples of cranial facial distortions: one eye bigger, ears sitting lower, head tilted and referred.
This was a lot of valuable information. I wish you could have shown many case studies all throughout but especially in the later weeks of actual patients and pointed out the distortion patterns you see, what they mean, and what you would do about it. It is also helpful to see a patient from initial consultation to completion of care.

I took this course to learn more and more about cranium, understand every detail and increasingly improve my analysis and conduct.
I take all courses learning from this couple is wonderful and addictive learn from them and transform lives in the best way. All of your courses have an absurd impact on my personal and professional life, because I feel like I am giving my best to my patients and transforming their lives, I become happier every day.
A 2 year old girl with a lot of skull asymmetry, her left eye was much smaller, in addition to aesthetics, she breathed through her mouth and had very strong recurrent otitis, her ears leaked pus more than once a month, after the adjustments I made, she never had otitis again, she didn’t have a blocked nose, she can breathe through her mouth and her eyes are much better.
You two are my inspiration. I thank God for your life.

I took this course because my daughter took a fall at the playground and landed on her face. Her right orbit hit the edge of a steel structure. Since then I noticed asymmetries in her face that I wanted to know how to treat.
I will definitely be sharing this program with my colleagues because there is a small window in which chiropractors can bring on great change in a child’s nervous system development. Primitive reflexes and milestones are the building blocks to a child’s nervous system development and helping to identify and help integrate these will greatly help children develop properly. Identifying tongue ties and informing parents on their options for care is so incredibly important in helping them navigate their infant’s first year of life.
It gave me tools to assess retained reflexes in my kids as well as my patients.
I looked for retained spinal Galant reflex in a child who was said to be disruptive in school and had too many meltdowns according to his mom. He was positive for the retained reflex. I treated him during his adjustment sessions and also gave mom more exercises to do at home and she said his behavior improved.
I have always loved your seminars and content. I just wish the material was presented a bit more slowly. It’s like drinking from a fire hose at times. The slides and transcripts are very helpful. Reading from the teleprompter, not so much. Overall it was a wonderful course. Thank you for sharing this knowledge!

I took this program for basic infant assessment.
The course had interesting content with short classes and timely call to actions. It is recorded, so the student can watch over and over again.
It was a great review and I was able to implement it immediately.
Thank you
