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

Byrna Bornstein, SLP
I wanted to better ‘see’ cranial distortions and understand the factors contributing in a particular presentation. I wanted to better understand the chiropractic lens. I feel chiropractic care can be an important care component for my clients with oral motor, speech and feeding issues. I wanted to have a better understanding of which clients would benefit the most. Also I wanted to better explain my rationale for suggesting the pursue chiropractic care
Gives a good understanding of the various systems which could be contributing to cranial facial distortions. Stress the importance of early intervention when warranted. Presented a case for professional intervention but also a worthy set of exercises which are easily integrated into daily routines and which impact growth and development
I entered the course with a fairly good understanding of the systems reviewed but it was helpful to get a better understanding of the chiropractic lens.
Thanks for offering this class to parents and related professionals. I am an SLP who enjoys collaboration with local chiropractors.

I took this class as a refresher on facial distortion patterns and how to correct them. I was also interested in digging deeper into retained reflexes.
This program reviewed how to do a baby cranial exam. It was a good reference for parents and other practitioners needing an understanding of how the baby can be helped with chiropractic care and it was a good review of reflexes and time frames for them.
Thus course has helped me do better exams and helped me understand retained reflexes better.
I have a baby that came into the office with failure to put on weight and constantly throwing up. He was tiny and grumpy and at 3 months had not put on any weight from birth. I did a more thorough exam than I might have before and started adjusting him and working with his cranials and he is not throwing up as much. He is getting bigger and thriving and his head is not flat on the right side any more.
It was a good class. Thank you.

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 course to learn more about how cranial facial distortions affect different aspects of development. I also wanted to learn when looking at a babies/toddlers facial structure how certain distortions are related to cranial subluxations and then to know the correction.
This program hits on every aspect of development from gross motor to primitive reflexes to things that maybe non-chiropractors don’t learn like the dural meningeal system. This course helps to tie all those things together and helps non-chiropractors learn the signs of cranial facial distortion and what they can do to help.
This course has helped me to look at treating children in a whole body manner. When treating any child you can’t just look at one thing to help them you need to think about every aspect of their development and the things that could be affecting their development. This course has allowed me to do that on a bigger scale.
I had an 18 months old in that I have been treating for torticollis, which has resolved. She comes in because she started crying during diaper changes. After listening to the dural meningeal lecture I began treating her for dural tension, which helped her so much.

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.
