“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 took this program to learn about treating pediatrics and to have a better understanding of SOT®/cranial techniques.

This is a very comprehensive program that covers everything from techniques to conditions and using techniques for different conditions. The material learned helps a lot in everyday practice/cases and the notes are also very helpful because you have them to refer back to. You learn how and when to apply/use techniques learned in the course when you come across certain patients. Currently in my first year of practice as an SOT® doctor, this program has helped a lot when treating cases I didn’t know how to start or resolve. This course has helped a lot with treatment of conditions in children (and adult) that I had a hard time figuring out what to do. It’s taught me a lot of useful techniques that I’ve either forgotten and/or need a refresher on.

Currently I have quite a lot of kids coming from a pediatric dentists that have class II or class III that are severe. They’ve all been able to start coming out of their class II or III and just need a bit of bite fixing because of their growth of the maxilla or mandible.

There was one kid that was a severe class II and it didn’t matter what the dentist did, either using elastics or expander, he would not go forward in the upper palate and his mandible was also stuck. After working with him for 8 visits, he had almost no anterior head carriage. He finally started expanding forward. Afterwards, because he was 12 years old, they put in an expander in for two weeks to help and he had so much expansion in two weeks that they didn’t need to keep it in any longer. He also stopped tripping over himself in soccer practice and can run without hip pain.”

“At the age of 18 months old, my daughter was in an accident at daycare. She fell on cement and injured her left side of her face. Three days after this incident her left eye started to turn in. I brought her to a Doctor of Optometry and they said it was probably just a coincidence and had nothing to do with the fall.

A few weeks later she was put in glasses and I was told that she sees double and probably always will. The following month I reached out to a Chiropractor that works an hour and a half away from us, but I knew that he was trained under Dr. DeJarnette years ago and utilized techniques for SOT and Cranial adjustments. Thankfully after 2 years of weekly appointments with Dr. Groene, my daughter was progressing in a way that her eye doctors and therapist could not even believe. I was also told when she first was seen after the injury that she would never have an opportunity to wear contacts. After years of specific cranial adjustments with Dr. Groene, she is now in contact lenses and does not see double! Her eye only turns in when she is extremely tired or has been reading for a long period of time. Having these great, unbelievable results, I was inspired to learn all I possibly could so that I could not only continue to help my daughter without having to drive 3 hours weekly to see Dr. Groene, but to help future patients that may be going through the struggles that we went through for years. I wanted to learn as much as possible and from who I thought was the best of the best to learn from. Therefore I signed up for this series and could not be more pleased with my decision.

My Three Takeaways:

1. There are many ways and resources to reference the material after class. The books and online material are well written as well as easy to follow and understand.
2. It is a privilege to learn from Dr. Marty, who is a fountain of knowledge not only with cranial information but also with chiropractic and owning a business for 40 years.
3. While each seminar contains a lot of information, even being able to take bits and pieces each time will help build the confidence in helping patients.

I have gained the confidence to evaluate and adjust patients in a new way with the indicators that we were taught during the 3 classes. The amount of information that is applicable has been life changing for my practice and for me personally with my own children.

Specifically I have a current patient that has significant TMJ issues. I used the information I learned in the first two classes to help and after just two visits she came back in tears. She said that what I had done literally changed her life! She has not been able to eat a burger or steak in 2 years. She also had to stop public speaking because she would spit or drool while speaking. After just two adjustments she was able to speak without any problems.

I appreciate all of the knowledge, the extra time to explain, the hands on practice, and the patience that Dr. Marty and Dr. Nancy have while I learn this new skill set. I am also grateful for the tools available to continue to study this material. The books and guides are very well written and a great resource for me to use when I am not in class.

This is the second time I have taken this series and it is still mind blowing how much knowledge Dr. Rosen has to share. Marty and Nancy are not only amazing teachers but respectful, caring, and fun people and Chiropractors to learn from.”

“I have gained so much from this program but my three takeaways would be:
1. Confidence in following the SOT indicators for more specificity in my adjustments.
2. The hands-on opportunities are so impactful in mastering assessment and adjusting skills and learning in a group setting is invaluable.
3. The body and brain are beautifully complex, and this program integrates all the pieces in a comprehensible and practical manner. It is easy to take the information and apply it to the clinical setting.

I always leave with more confidence in myself and my ability to be a great chiropractor for my community. I really appreciate the time and dedication Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson has put into this program and it inspires me to continue to learn and build upon the foundation of pediatric chiropractic care I have to provide the best for my patients..

I work with a lot of medically complex children in my practice and SOT and cranial adjusting just makes sense. Even when these patients present differently than your typical patient, the indicators help point care in the right direction and improvements are often seen quickly as the nervous system responds. It is really amazing to hear that positive changes are happening after using these techniques, especially when families have tried so many other things without much impact.

I would absolutely recommend this course to other chiropractors, especially those who see children. It is imperative to have confidence and specificity when working with the pediatric population, and this course imparts this knowledge and so much more.

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn from Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson. They are great mentors and I admire their commitment to sharing their knowledge and experience to help us become better chiropractors.”

“Three takeaways from this program:
1. Do less (not overstimulate).
2. There are many ways to evaluate the cranium.
3. It helped me learn the order of cranial adjusting better.

This program has helped me feel more confident and more capable of helping the pediatric population.

A patient was suffering from ear aches and drainage dysfunction. We applied some of the intra-oral techniques and helped decrease pain and improve fluid movement. It was easier to explain what I was doing as well.”
