    “This program has very good information that every chiropractor should have in their tool pack.

    I feel more confident evaluating the cranium and tongue-tie, and correcting/adjusting.

    I’m excited to start the SOT pediatric series in person!”

    “This program improved my confidence with treating little ones. Understanding even more of the biomechanics and small nuances through palpation helps build more confidence with what adjustment is needed. Thank you!

    I had trouble with one patient that was showing BL sphenoid in flexion. She was able to unlock with SB contact on the right but not the left. We assessed the sphenoid motion again through pterygoid process contact on the left side.

    I appreciate you taking the time to create the course for a deeper understanding.”

    “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.”

    It was a good review of the intra-oral contacts for palate corrections, I have a better understanding of the grading of severity of ties, and I can now better explain to new parents the connections between tongue-tie and its effect on the rest of the cranium.

    I have a better understanding of how to evaluate tongue-tie in my practice.

    Recently a 2-month old baby was brought to my office post tongue-tie release, and within two weeks the cranial adjustments had vastly improved the baby’s latch that hadn’t improved much with the laser release.

    Yes I would recommend this course because I always learn something from Dr. Marty, even if it is something I have heard many times before

    3 takeaways I could share with others: When to wait and see, when to more strongly consider surgery; that there is a lot more merit and potential for successful conservative approach than most people realize; indications of tongue-tie.

    I am truly so grateful for this level of information and instruction, and will immediately be purchasing an infant and adult skull to practice. I see so many babies for tongue tie and latch and am looking forward to continuing to better and better support them.

    I have been doing a much better job of assessing the palate since beginning, and have been practicing releases. I also did not realize there are 3 different fruit jars, so this has been helpful for assessment as well.

    Yes definitely would recommend this course because I haven’t been instructed to this degree of detail in this area anywhere else.

    Thank you both SO very much. I want to watch it over and over now and practice and practice.
