Praise For: Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development

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 wanted to learn what signs to look for in infants that may tip off that there are some cranial imbalances that need to be addressed

I’d say one would be to observe, observe, observe – notice details in the face, skull, etc. The other would be that there are things that can be addressed at home if mild, such as placing toys on the restricted side in the instance of torticollis, for example. Third would be the innate intelligence of the body mindset toward potential and growth – I think this is the accurate frame to convey this to patients.

Gave useful information so parents can know when to intervene early to put kids on the best trajectory of potential/development.

I took this program to help with infant care in practice.

My takeaways are how to notice facial distortions, body movements, tongue tie.

This program has helped me notice cranial distortions in my grandchildren, and has helped me help moms.

This course was recommended to me by my friend and colleague. I was hoping to learn the causes of cranial facial distortions and their impact on development.

My three takeaways are: CSF buildup and its effect, common is not normal, and the effects of compensations that form when development is abnormal

This course has reminded me and made me more aware of how birth/development can be impacted by tension and other restrictions

I have been able to apply this info to some of my cases. A student with severe sensory aversions, toe walking and low tone has a history of traumatic birth and vacuum delivery. It has been hard to get parents to follow through with cranial work, but I hope this course will have helped me explain the rationale better so they can understand.

Thank you! I loved the doctor shares the most and also the Facebook page was interesting too!

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.
