    “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.”

    “I took this program because I wanted to expand my knowledge in caring for babies and children.

    My three takeaways are:
    1. Confidence in caring for children
    2. The science explained in a deeper way.
    3. More tools in my tool belt.

    This program has given me the confidence and tools to care for children on another level!

    The cranial work has made a huge impact. I highly recommend this course as it gives you many more tools in your tool bag when it comes to working with children.

    You guys are great! I appreciate all you do for our profession!”
