Feedback from Our Students
Kelli Winarski, DC
1. Dr. Marty and his instructors have so much information to offer. The quality of teaching is second to none.
2. Review the notes and anatomy ahead of time. It’s like drinking from a firehose!
3. I’m really grateful for the opportunity to learn from Marty and Nancy and hope I get to again in the future.I personally feel like the cranial work has made me a more complete chiropractor. I’ve been able to help more complex cases and have expanded my practice.
I have a patient with MS and severe brain fog. She was referred to me specifically for cranial. After her first adjustment, she had a period of clarity for the first time since she can remember. Since then her periods of clarity have become more frequent and last longer. (This was after completing 3 months of chiropractic care with another provider in town with none of those results)
Absolutely, I would recommend this program. I think every chiropractor needs this skillset whether they work with pediatrics or not.”
Harper Rentz, DC
“Our office took this course as a team to grow in pediatric care and learn how to more effectively and confidently use tonal techniques.
Be ready to learn and grow, don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and ask for help, have fun learning this new material! This program has made me think about the structure we currently have in place for new patients, especially pediatric patients. This information has opened up a window into a new way of completing exams and caring for new patients. Slowly implementing intra-oral work has been a game changer for many of our patients experiencing TMJ and jaw issues.
I would recommend this program as this information is invaluable to have and implement into your office. I love that this series has given me so many new ways to care for specific challenges that are prevalent in our world. Whether you’re ready to dive head first into the tonal technique world, of dip your toe in one day at a time, Drs. Rosen and Watson are there to guide you every step of the way. You leave feeling enriched and ready to tackle at least one aspect of the program, then willing to start implementing more and more over time.
I think all chiropractors would benefit from this series, as it gives you more and more layers to chiropractic and caring for the world we live in today. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us, it is much appreciated and changing people’s lives every day!”
