“1. This program has vastly built upon my education with the ICPA 2. Dr. Rosen’s course with ICPA provided great information, but the weekend time frame given made the content very overwhelming. This program being spread out made it much more manageable and digestible and not as intimidating. 3. I am confident that the information presented in this course provides a very holistic approach to treating the pediatric population, especially in the realm of neurological development, an area in which I felt I was lacking prior.
I’ve been practicing the content on my own two children (now 5 months and 2.5 years old.) I’m not currently practicing, but when I do start up again, I now have the competency and confidence in building relationships with my midwife and son’s oral tie revision dentist for patient referrals.
I used the techniques on my now 5 month old son following his tongue tie revision when he was 6 weeks old. The revision alone did not help with the nursing issues like it had with my previous son. The protocols helped with difficulty keeping a latch, air gulping and severe gassiness.
I would recommend this course because it gives a very thorough approach to caring for the pediatric population. I appreciate that there are different techniques that can be used to treat a specific issue, making it accessible to any practitioner/technique.”

“I have a growing number of kids in my practice and when speaking with midwives and lactation specialists I saw a growing need to improve latch through improvement of the cranial vault.
I took your ICPA cranial seminar years ago and was able to apply and start practicing some of the corrections at that time. I feel that that base of development allowed me to learn and apply more of the adjustments and cranial/palate corrections right away. Without that, I feel that I would have struggled through the content. The amount of repetition in the course is very helpful and allows the student to move on before mastery and still be able to understand and apply specific corrections as they come up. If I wasn’t currently treating 10+ babies per day I do not think I would have been able to leave this course with the confidence I was seeking. It is my opinion that this course is for an experienced chiropractor who has had a large portion of infant and adolescent patients for greater than a year.
I have grown significantly in my knowledge and confidence when it comes to cranial correction in infants. This has provided greater, faster results and I have seen that population grow faster than I ever expected. I have also grown greatly in the way I am able to examine and communicate the importance of care for the child to parents. I know that I will need lots of time and practice to master all of the corrections but I feel like I have accomplished a great deal these last 10 months in my professional skills and I am very proud of myself and thankful to this program.
Just the other day, I had a 5 day old come in that was set to have a tongue tie in a week and the parents had been told to see me before the procedure. Baby presented in a tense primitive fetal position with very little stretching out or head movement reported. Mom said that the baby was very hard to dress and seemed very uncomfortable. I assessed, and did an occiput and sphenobasilar correction, palate work and facial fruit jar after, and released psoas on the left. I saw the baby 2 days later and she presented with her neck able to extend, her arms and legs relaxed, and parents reported more content and much easier to dress! I will continue to see her until her tongue tie and help her to heal and acclimate to the release.
Yes I would definitely recommend this class to others! It is very organized and repetitive to help with understanding the deep dive into SOT® and pediatric modification. The instructors make themselves fully available for questions and the course assignments are very helpful with application of each module.
Anyone looking to dive deeper into evaluation and correction of cranial distortion will benefit greatly by joining this study! It was a challenging 10 months, but it was very rewarding for me and I came out with an incredible confidence to better care for the infants and children in my practice.
Thank you both for an excellent course!”Dr. Sarah Tremblay
“I wanted to take this course to up level my ability to help the many pediatric (and also adult) members of my practice. I’ve taken a couple of your other courses and have really enjoyed implementing the things I learned to help some of my toughest cases begin to change in meaningful ways.
If you’re struggling with your spinal or upper cervical adjustments holding, cranial work can be the key to creating lasting change. Understanding how the cranium impacts nursing, development, stress etc. and how to gently correct imbalances is game changing for your effectiveness in pediatric practice. I learned so much here that isn’t available at school, and it has greatly improved my patient care.
I’m becoming known locally as the Dr who can help with things beyond back pain. Testimonials have become much more life changing and honestly performing the cranial work has allowed me to become more connected with my practice members.
I’ve been working with an entire family and two of their children have cranial distortions that have affected growth and development. Using the techniques learned in this class, we’ve been able to avoid a helmet for their youngest and their oldest is speaking more clearly and regulating much better than before.
SOT and cranial work in general often felt overwhelming to me because it was so different from diversified (the only technique taught at my school), but this course has broken it down into manageable and meaningful parts to be able to confidently use what you learn each and every week.
Thank you both for sharing your wisdom, I appreciate you and so do my practice members!”

My three takeaways from this program are: Cranial assessment is essential for every pediatric chiropractor. Cranial adjusting helps with general alignment and better outcomes. It requires special skills and a lot of understanding to perform these adjustments.
This program impacted my life because I have seen right in front of my eyes changes immediately in some cases, something that was challenging before.
I had a case of a cranial imbalance; so much the baby had his whole mouth to the left side of his face. I performed the “jar opening” assessment and some other techniques learned in this course. On his 3rdvisit, his mouth was back to normal.I will and I have recommended this program to every pediatric colleague. It is essential information not taught in Chiropractic school. It is an extra tool you can use to help more patients and have an extra specialization in this topic.
I have been working with babies since I graduated from NYCC 11 years ago. I have done all ICPA and some other pediatric and prenatal courses. The thing about this program that I liked the most was the hands-on experience I had practicing with my patients every week. It was amazing the changes I saw immediately in some of them. Thank you so much! I’m looking forward to an in person seminar soon!!

I took this program to improve my ability to take care of the pediatric patient and offer superior care while continuing my knowledge over the years of practice.
1. Pediatric care is vital with cranial growth and development in the first two years of live, we have to set these kiddos up for success in their nervous systems.
2. We must continue to grow and develop our own profession past adjustments to the spine only, cranial work is powerful and much needed.
3. Working with children allows us to make such profound changes and these principles can be applied to our adult patients as well.I feel that I have worked on my own children in a much different way as well as seeing a much better outcome in my own patients and quicker results.
Plagiocephaly is a very common condition I see in my office. We have much higher success rates and less cranial helmet referrals after implementing all the cranial work.
I would recommend this program. We need to constantly continue to better ourselves for our patients and continue to grow our knowledge in the pediatric field. We should be required to take this in school.
This coursework is amazing and so powerful. This coursework offers pediatric care and is nothing short of amazing. To be able to see changes immediately in your practice and positive outcomes for kids is truly a passion and I love what this course has done for myself and my practice members.
