“I chose to take this course to enhance my experience of what I already know w/CST and adjustments. I also wanted to have more experience applying SOT® techniques for my pediatric population.
Three valuable things I would share w/colleagues:
1. Attention to detail in recognizing difficult problem areas and how to solve them.
2. Understanding in-depth anatomy is a must.
3. Excellent job at tying all the concepts together.I have been a physical medicine specialist for almost 17 years. This course has helped me to find my niche and really educate not only my patients but my students how important it is for us to articulate and help our pediatric population in a different way without overwhelming them with drugs – showing that hands on modalities can help w/healing processes. While it took me a while to get through this course, the biggest take off for me recently was after Class 4 working w/the concept of sphenobasilar junction correction after I do a frenectomy release. Feeding coordinations have improved significantly post frenectomy. I was doing CST prior to release but when I fine-tuned it after the class; I noticed a big change post frenectomy w/improved latch. It doesn’t matter how long one has been practicing or doing similar work. You can always learn more but even better enjoy a different perspective to help enhance your skills. I have found this class to be invaluable to me. I never stop learning. And Dr. Martin and Dr. Watson made this class very user friendly! For me, I am the first ND (I believe) to take this course w/physical medicine background. I feel more providers need this course that are working with the pediatric population. When we look at environmental factors as well as internal factors, there’s so much more we can do with touch. I would encourage this class to be open to NDs, chiropractors and osteopaths. I just want to say thank you both for being patient with me getting through this course. While the videos were difficult to lip read, I found the transcripts to be helpful and going through the modules and exercises was a fantastic reminder and tool to process the information given in the course. I appreciate the accommodations you made to make this class accessible for me. Thank you both again so much!”

“I BEGGED Nancy to open up a space for me for this course and I’m SO grateful! When Marty taught for ICPA it was one of my favorite courses and I realized there were things in practice I do every day that I learned from him. I wanted to deepen my knowledge and understanding of cranial work as it’s so powerful in practice.
My three takeaways:
1. This program really went deep into cranial techniques.
2. There was so much follow up support with the love sessions.
3. The homework was really helpful at keeping me on track and implementing what I had been learning.I feel like I’m really just starting. I’ve been in practice for 11 years now and I feel like this course is what I’ve been looking for. Now I have a better understanding of the cranial system. I also get frustrated when we get compared to craniosacral therapists, now I KNOW I have a much more robust training and technique.
I see so many babies with breastfeeding issues. I have been doing oral work for years now but this course gave me so much specificity for the palate, SBJ and facial bones. I love the Sutherland’s cant hook and the fruit jar techniques. Those have been a game changer in my office for babies breastfeeding and breathing,
YES YES YES, I would recommend this program. This is the master class! Any doc who does cranial and or sees babies should do this.
This course is so much more than a cranial class. It goes in depth in neurology, anatomy, physiology, brain development, practice management, marketing and personal growth. It really pushed me to be better and we all owe that to our communities and to our profession. I felt so supported by Marty and Nancy and I’m so excited to continue learning from them.”

“My practice is currently very maternity focused, and I wanted to upskill to offer a similar level of competence and confidence to the newborns.
My three takeaways from this program:
1. It is VERY content heavy, so make sure you’ve got your concentration cap on!!
2. It is extraordinarily thorough in terms of content and delivery. I was concerned about doing a purely online course in a hands-on based discipline, but the thoroughness of the materials presented really alleviated that concern. All bases were covered, and to be honest, I probably absorbed more of the information than if it was presented live at a seminar.
3. Do the homework as it’s presented! I decided I wanted to review the material before completing the CTA’s, but I ran out of time and ended up stressing myself out!This program has most definitely given me more confidence in my work, both in a pediatric and adult patient base. This confidence has also impacted my personal life in a positive manner, although I think my husband may be a little sick of hearing me talk about ‘the new baby that I saw today’!!
I had a 4 week old brought into me, lethargic, constipated, and generally flat. After clearing the spine, I used the Hypofunction technique on him, and the change was phenomenal. He loved the technique itself, you could just see the way his whole body relaxed, and his Mum reported multiple dirty nappies a day afterwards, and a more alert, engaged and happy baby afterwards.
Without a doubt, I would recommend this program. The content delivered is exceptional, and has the potential to set you up as a leader in the Pediatric field. The value for money is fantastic, and the program delivers the information in a very ordered and considered manner.
Right from the get go I was excited about this program. The content is so well put together and delivered, that it really affords a deep dive into chiropractic pediatrics, and especially cranial work. The videos were cleverly done, and really allowed you to see the contact points, and the basics of the movements required. I’m not actually convinced that I would have gotten more out of the program if it had been an in person seminar (or series of them!), and the opportunity to go back and watch and re-watch the cranial techniques was gold in terms of gaining a proper understanding of the technique, and confidence in applying them.
Thank you so much for the time you have both taken in putting together this program, and in making yourselves available to answer questions and clear up concerns. I have thoroughly enjoyed this program, and look forward to gaining proficiency and then hopefully mastery of the techniques, which is most definitely going to take longer than the 10 months we’ve already spent!”

“I decided to take this course to further my knowledge and skills in caring for kiddos both in practice and at home. I wanted to grow my confidence and skill set in pediatric chiropractic care.
I found this program very in-depth and learned a lot of skills and info to add to my pediatric tool kit. Three takeaways were how incredibly important the first couple years of life are especially for development, how to specifically assess and correct cranials, and pain reduction techniques for kiddos using aspects of SOT® cranial and sacral techniques.
How has taking this program impacted your life, personally and professionally:
I feel much more confident in my assessment and care for kiddos both in practice as well as with my own littles at home.
I have used the palate exam and assessment and found a high palate. Using the techniques taught in this course I was able to work on the palate and allow baby and mama to improve their breastfeeding relationship.I would definitely recommend this course to others as Dr. Rosen is a wealth of knowledge and this is a very in-depth and intensive course. I learned a lot and will definitely review my notes from time to time as there is just so much incredible information.
I really enjoyed this course and as a business owner and mama of 3 littles, I really appreciated that it was virtual. I learned a lot and feel much more confident in my examination and skills when it comes to taking care of kiddos. Dr. Rosen is a wealth of knowledge and it was an honor to have the opportunity to learn from him.
This program was jam packed with so much knowledge and wisdom, I already learned so much and I know each time I reference back to my notes I’ll find even more tidbits and pearls! Thank you for all that you do”

“When I first started taking this course I was working for a doctor who was seeing a lot of pediatric patients at the time. I wanted to be able to help with these patients if need be. I saw what she was able to accomplish with my son the previous year and knew what a difference it made in our lives. I wanted to be able to provide that type of care for others as well. Since starting the course I ended up transitioning to my own practice. It has been a big change going from being an associate to a solo business owner. I ended up working with a lot of Amish babies who needed cranial work.
Self-paced can be great but it also does not allow for quick clarification or hands on feedback. Less is more with any form of chiropractic. Be precise. Don’t force something you’re working on… go with the least amount of resistance.
I have been able to see how important getting care early on is with babies in so many aspects of development that I didn’t even begin to comprehend beforehand. I can appreciate the work put into a pediatric practice and also know it’s not what I want to be doing right now. I can definitely still help babies and children more now than I could before which I am grateful for. I have experienced how this work can help all generations of life.
I have used the fruit jar technique and maxilla internal and external rotation with a lot of my patients. It has helped with draining and sinus issues. I have also seen TMJ issues improved and resolved in one case with the specific finger placements. I’ve seen ears drain within seconds after doing cranial work and overall improvements in patients reporting more calmness and less stress after CSF balancing.
I would recommend this course because all chiropractors should have some basis of CSF, cranial and exam work regarding babies and children.
There is so much to be learning in this course that you could take it 5 times and still be learning new things from it. It really shows how much dedication, experience and time that has been put into the field of pediatrics and how little we are taught in school. It is unfortunate we do not have this course worked into our curricula in school.
The dedication of Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson to sharing and teaching the knowledge they have gained over the years is humbling.”
