“I found it very helpful to review what was taught with the call to actions. It also serves as a nice workbook to look through for key highlights of each topic. I also enjoyed the diagram that went along with some of the adjusting protocols for a better visual of finger contact. The handouts that are typed up are helpful as well to be able to review what was talked about outside of the PowerPoint slides.
I personally have had two children with tight oral tissues and cranial distortions and it was helpful to get a peace of mind of corrections that could be made and alterations that are possible. I also take care of a lot of families specifically for breastfeeding and now I have a better understanding of how to adjust for palate distortions which are affecting the infant’s ability to get a good latch.
I was struggling with how to correct for the sphenobasilar distortions because before I was not correcting them intraorally and now that I have more knowledge on the contact points to look for I was able to get more movement in the joint and see the release happen in my infants in practice.
I have taken a few cranial adjusting classes and every time I hear something that I missed before which was the missing link to something I had been struggling with. I grasp a better understanding around cranial adjusting and the nuance in the distortion patterns.”

“My three takeaways from this program are:
1. In depth overview regarding anatomy of the cranium especially the palate.
2. Detailed descriptions of assessment of palate and suture motion/restrictions.
3. Overview of corrections for restrictions of sutures and palate.Very in-depth course on the assessment and corrections of the palate. I treat and assess the palate multiple times a day and will be using these techniques to continue to help my patients.
I treat newborns and infants with tongue ties multiple times a day and have always worked on the palate to help with function and symptoms. I have already started using some of these techniques (specifically the assessment and correction of the sphenobasilar junction) to help with high and narrow palates.
This is a great program. I would love an overview at the end of what an exam/treatment would look like. There were many assessments and corrections discussed but it was unclear how they all fit together within a single exam/visit.”

“This, and all of the Peak Potential programs I’ve taken, provide in depth description of normal function, what to look for, and how to correct it.
This program has expanded my skill set and ability to help my community.
I’ve had the opportunity to apply this training to a few new infant patients and am continuing to learn as I work with them. Thank you!”

“This program has easily digestible information, clear ways to locate restrictions and correct them.
My personal goal for my practice this year is to expand the pediatric patient population I see-having this information is only going to help that grow and benefit so many!
I haven’t had a patient yet since finishing this class where I could apply my new knowledge but I can’t wait. I have had previous patients with difficulty latching and have used my minimal cranial experience, which did help baby feed a little easier, so I know going in with this information my treatments will be so much more effective.
I loved this class and all the information it provided us with, so excited to take this out and start helping others! I also wanted to say thank you for making it available for longer than the course took – I had some family issues going on during the holidays which put work on hold and put this course on the back burner. I am very grateful for the chance to finish the class and learn the awesome material.”

I loved the structural explanations of the cranial. It really had me visualizing how everything is connected. I was surprised to learn that the narrower or flat the nasal passages the more difficult the drainage is. It makes sense. I always just thought of the palate pushing up. I really liked how we move our heads to breath and how important it is for the cranial to structurally be aligned for that.
I am able to explain to clients how things are connected and how important having the cranial aligned not only for breathing, but also for the CSF to flow in order to help keep up healthy physically and immune wise too. It makes sense that everything goes from the cranial to the tailbone. if that is not open or there is some type of obstruction how it can impact a growing child.
I will be advising clients to see chiropractors more often and not just for breast-feeding challenges.
Yes I would recommend this course. I think more people in my profession could use a class on how everything in the cranium is connected and if one structure is off how it can toss everything off. I do not think the majority of my industry understands the importance of functional and structural alignment and how it affects growth and development for their entire lives.
I think it was great.
