    “I took this course to gain more knowledge about SOT and to have more clinical certainty with applying cranial work in practice. Having this knowledge will take your practice to another level, advance your adjusting skills, and seek out different protocols. This seminar gave me even more conviction to get more babies under care to make sure they have the most connected nervous system.

    I am working with a baby with moderate/severe plagiocephaly and torticollis. The pediatrician wants to get the baby in a helmet. The baby will only want to nurse on one side. Under care now, mom has noticed the baby will comfortably nurse on both sides without looking just one way. Great progress has been noticed on the cranial work too!

    Absolutely would recommend this program. Nowhere else are you getting the knowledge and the hands-on experience like you get at this seminar. It will elevate your adjusting skills and bring them to a whole other level. My experience in this seminar has far exceeded my expectations. The philosophy, science and art were addressed in a way that you can bring back the knowledge and skills to start applying the next day in practice. Other chiropractors should attend this course for the certainty in their head, heart, and hands.

    We all know how important it is to get your nervous system checked, but explaining the importance at different milestones was amazing to hear again. That really connects the parents to care as well. Thank you for your time dedicated to this research and profession!”

    “I took the hands-on course as I wanted to deepen the knowledge I was gaining from the online course. It’s a lot of information, so I knew that getting to take these series in-person after the online course would really help solidify more of my knowledge into something I felt confident using in practice.

    It’s very in-depth work, but there are also many simple takeaways that in mastering those, you can help a lot of people more than you did before. That being said don’t get discouraged and just take what you can, when you can and start applying it. Last, these courses inspired me all over again with the power of chiropractic.

    The programs reiterated, in a different way, how chiropractic is about tone/stress on the dural system. It also gave me a lot of confidence in working with kids, or talking to their parents. Personally, it was also really nice to meet fellow doctors with this same passion and willingness to keep growing and learning.

    I had a 2 year-old who was falling behind on speech and failed his 50-word test. I learned he had a vacuum and forced delivery and when the mom sought out care, I talked to her about the benefits of an assessment just to see how he is adapting to his world. That encouraged her to come in and let her see how he was struggling with numerous imbalances within his system. Within 4 visits he went from hardly speaking to full sentences, more emoting and more eye contact. He had a significant strain on the occiput, with sphenobasilar torsion. Releasing this was life changing.

    Honestly, there just isn’t anything like this course. I’ve done some SOT and CST work but this really blends it into the way we work and think as chiropractors. I think that is what makes it so unique and a great fit for those wanting to deepen their cranial skills or learn new ways of seeing and working with the pediatric spine.”
