    My three takeaways from this course are:
    1. Enhanced Understanding of Cranial Anatomy and Physiology: The course provided a deeper insight into the intricate structures of the cranial system, including sutures, bones, and their role in the nervous system. This understanding enables more precise and effective treatments.
    2. Improved Palpation Skills: Through hands-on practice, you developed heightened sensitivity in palpating subtle cranial movements, which is crucial for detecting dysfunctions and guiding treatment approaches.
    3. Integration of Cranial Techniques into Holistic Care: The course emphasized the integration of cranial therapies with other chiropractic, providing a more comprehensive approach to patient care and enhancing overall outcomes.

    This course has enhanced my skills by equipping me with advanced cranial techniques and improving my ability to address more complex patient cases. This new skill set has boosted my confidence, broadened my treatment options, and enhances the quality of care I provide.

    One specific instance where I applied the techniques from the cranial immersion course was an adult patient, who presented with chronic headaches and sinus pressure. After a thorough assessment, I detected subtle restrictions in her cranial sutures, particularly in the frontal and sphenoid bones that could be contributing to her symptoms. Using the refined palpation skills and cranial techniques I learned, I performed gentle cranial adjustments to release tension in these areas. Over the course of a few sessions, the patient reported significant relief from her headaches and sinus discomfort. By incorporating these techniques, I not only address her symptoms more effectively but also improve her overall function, enhancing her sense of well-being.

    I would 100% recommend this course to any chiropractor looking to take their skills to the next level. It’s a lot of information but if time is taken really learning what is being taught this course is a game changer.

    That chiropractic cranial correction, like spinal adjusting, is highly specific; that chiropractic cranial correction can easily be done within the context of a chiropractic visit as long as an appropriate cranial exam has been done; that cranial correction is not just about sutures and cranial bone mobility but mostly about dural-meningeal tension and CSF pressure and movement.

    As a 22-year practitioner, it’s awesome to add not just a new tool, but really a whole new kit of tools, to my clinical toolbox to better serve my patient population. I’m already seeing great clinical benefits. Also, as I age, it feels good to add more skills and offerings that are easy on my body that I can lean into as time goes on so that I can practice for as long as I want to.

    One of my long-time patients has terrible anterolisthesis/lumbar stenosis and in the last year or so has developed dizziness, occasional confusion, and visual and auditory hallucinations. She has been thoroughly worked up medically and has been diagnosed with early onset Lewy body dementia. I’m confident this is due to the altered CSF flow from the narrowing in her lumbar spine. I found occipital and R temporal dysfunction, improved those and focused on increasing CSF movement when I see her each week. She says it’s the only thing that calms her symptoms.

    Yes, I would recommend this program. Your teaching methods help ensure true uptake and integration of the material, the material is accessible to someone without deep roots in SOT, and the intraoral work is covered really well.

    I like the repetition in the program, which really helps the information to integrate and become second-nature. Thank you for the extra time to get through the material. Great course!

    Three takeaways from this course would be:
    1. The importance of the specific movements of each cranial bone during each phase of respiration.
    2. Techniques to add to your tool belt for specific symptoms.
    3. How impactful cranial work is, and how it can oftentimes be the missing piece to some cases.

    I have improved my patient outcomes and my confidence in practice.

    13 year old female with chronic headaches and dizziness has seen a huge improvement in her headaches and her dizziness has subsided. Her sphenoid wings and all points around them could barely tolerate light palpation, and now the tenderness is 80% better after a few weeks of care. A 65 year old male with a history of head trauma suffers chronic sinus pressure/drainage issues, as well as a tic that has seen vast improvement with cranial work. Improved nursing with babies, quicker improvement in speech therapy once beginning cranial work, and so much more!

    Yes, I would recommend this program! This work is so powerful, and tie knowledge you gain throughout this course is priceless.

    Thanks for all of your hard work! I will continue to study with you guys.

    Having taken many continuing education courses and achieving multiple certifications, it’s amazing how much all of this information fills in gaps of knowledge and clinical support. This course provides entirely new clinically relevant assessments and corrections that most standard chiropractic certifications/techniques do not include. It will help all chiropractors especially to provide exceptional care and results to all patients (and likely to those “tough & complicated” cases.
    I ask myself “what was I doing before learning this”? How could I possibly have provided the top level care that I thought I was? I have been able to understand things about my own self, family and children that have stumped my clinical understanding for years. I have applied the assessment and techniques on numerous clinic members and I often hear “what is this magic”. It’s been amazing!

    I have used this technique on a baby with obvious torticollis and plagiocephaly – that the mom was told to do physio for. She almost didn’t sign on for chiropractic care but after 12 sessions, her plagiocephaly was much improved and torticollis was completely resolved. At her doctor and PT follow up, all the providers were incredibly impressed at the improvement without any PT!

    I would absolutely recommend this program. The information is very thorough and unmatched in any other program. For chiros wanting to provide the highest level of care, this program is a must!

    Thank you for how well organized and easy to digest you’ve made this! Thank you for your continued support and availability throughout the course as well. Thank you for the Facebook group and answering all questions. I felt very supported and encouraged during this program. While I miss the in person opportunity to train, this has made it possible for me to learn and apply this knowledge during a period in my life where it would have been impossible to travel for it!

    This course was packed with tangible information that was easy to implement as I was learning. I really enjoyed the short video clips that made the information easy to digest and I feel much more comfortable performing cranial work in my practice because of this course.

    This work has been so valuable! I’ve already started noticing shifts in my outcomes and have also had several practice members break through chronic pain patterns.

    I had a patient referred to me by a holistic dentist who has been working with her abnormal bite pattern and cervicogenic headaches. Just this past week this patient came in and said I was the first chiropractor to ever effectively help, and she had been to many before me. I know that would not have been the case, if I hadn’t taken this course!

    Thank you both so much for this class and the boundless amounts of information!
