Assistant Instructor: Dr. Ken Cooper
Dr. Ken’s journey into chiropractic care began during his early years at Chiropractic college, where he had the privilege of being introduced to the esteemed Dr. Larry Webster. It was during his wife’s pregnancies and the subsequent care provided by Dr. Webster to both his wife and newborn babies that Dr. Ken’s passion for maternal, infant, and pediatric chiropractic care was ignited.
During his tenure at Life University in Marietta, GA, Dr. Ken actively participated in seminars focused on the intricate art of perinatal and pediatric chiropractic care. Upon graduation, he wasted no time in pursuing his fellowship in Pediatric Chiropractic from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), concurrently attaining four other pediatric certifications, including the Webster Technique.
Driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence, Dr. Ken immersed himself in the teachings of Drs. Rosen and Watson, pioneers in pediatric chiropractic care. He became an early adopter of their methodologies, participating eagerly in Pediatric Certification seminars. Dr. Ken’s unwavering commitment to learning and mastering techniques, particularly within the Peak Potential Institute, culminated in him being one of the inaugural two doctors certified in Pediatric Cranial Adjusting by Drs. Rosen and Watson.
Dr. Ken is dedicated to transforming the lives of children and families through his profound knowledge and skill.
Feedback from Our Students
Marie Miller, DC
“I took this course to increase my confidence and competence in evaluating and adjusting my pediatric patients specifically.
This program helps the chiropractor articulate the importance of chiropractic care for the pediatric population and offers exceptional evaluation and adjusting protocols as well as gives the chiropractor confidence in caring for the pediatric population. This program has helped me develop my communication skills in explaining the importance of chiropractic care as well as helped me to perfect my evaluation and adjusting techniques.
Recently I had a mom and dad bring their newborn in – they had tried unsuccessfully to have children for over 6 years, so this baby was their miracle baby. They were scared to see a chiropractor but their daughter was unable to turn her head to the left and had significant plagiocephaly. They had already been to physical therapy with no change and were facing putting a helmet on their child. After a couple weeks of using this work on their daughter she not only could turn to her left unassisted but her head shape changed so much that when they returned for another helmet consult she was no longer a candidate for a helmet. Obviously, it was awesome she no longer needed a helmet after such a short time, but they really understood the importance of the work I was doing because I was able to communicate what I had learned from taking this course. They felt confident sharing with their MD what I was working on and shared the chiropractic message for me.
I would absolutely recommend this course to every chiropractor, especially if you plan on seeing pediatric patients. I am so thankful I was able to take this course and expand my knowledge on cranial adjusting! The ability to not only evaluate and adjust but to communicate what we do is highlighted in this course. This knowledge will give you confidence to talk to every person you meet and turn them into a lifelong chiropractic patient.”
John Caruso, DC
“If you see kids, (or don’t see kids yet), been in pediatrics for 3 months or 30 years, taking Dr Martin Rosen’s in-person seminars or seminar series is a no-brainer. The technical proficiency, clinical excellence and conviction to check, adjust and recheck kiddos is unlike anything we have in the profession today. If you’re on the fence, just jump in. The future of our children depends on it.”
