      The online portion was delivered in small portions that were easy to listen to and understand and use. It was very easy to incorporate into a busy schedule with work. The hands-on classes are very well taught. The information was presented in an easy to understand and easy to put into use. But it does require extra study and implementation time. The instructors. are very knowledgeable. They know their SOT protocols and techniques. It was easy to ask a question, and they explained it well. This is the first SOT class where I feel like I can study and implement it pretty easily. I highly recommend this series!

      I fully plan on integrating the SOT protocol and I am very excited about the cranial technique I learned. It will allow me to help even more patients, especially babies. I do work with a lot of tongue tie babies.

      The cranial and palate technique is amazing. Patients are sitting up and saying wow. Or a baby starts to nurse again or sleeps better, is comfier and starts to progress towards developmental milestones again.

      Yes, it was the first SOT class I have taken that explained the technique well and gave me the why behind it with the indicator system. I am excited and confident to begin to introduce it to my practice.

      Yes! I would recommend this program. Dr. Rosen is an expert in his SOT knowledge, and he can convey it in a very understandable way. I learned more SOT from this course than any other course I have taken. I now feel like I can implement the protocol and technique, whereas before I was too overwhelmed and did not know how to organize or implement it into my practice. For the first time I understand the indicator system and how to use it to show improvement. I now understand how to look at a face and see visual indicators. I feel confident in learning and using the cranial techniques whereas I did not understand how the cranial bones had moved so I could not implement an adjustment. But now I understand how the cranial and facial bones move; therefore the technique does not seem so overwhelming. Plus, the technique was taught and described in class very well. The two hands-on seminars were amazing. I loved Nancy Watson’s enthusiasm for SOT. Jacob Holman is a good listener, and he was able to help me figure out things I did not understand.

      1. The program masterfully integrates SOT and Pediatric care through a detailed learning journey of physiology, analysis and indicators- it is not about data/content, but about specific knowledge about what, where and how to adjust.
      2. It is an intensive program both in-person and online classes, it is not a watch and learn program. You get out of it what you put in it.
      3. I have gained more confidence and understanding of the world of pediatric care combined with SOT – making me a more empathetic, effective and interactive doctor. It made me really stop and think about the as-is and to-be as a Chiropractor and my practice.

      Thinking about Chiropractic, I always had the triad in mind – philosophy, science and art – and how a seminar/course would fit into one of the three pillars. But it can be a struggle to make the classical triad expand and adapt into practical and multidimensional triangles that actually challenge me to change my mindset in my practice. The program helped me think about new sides of other triangles – tonal/structural/SNC knowledge, my practice, my office blueprint, my personal philosophy – lines and sides that did not mean as much on their own because they simply were not connected altogether in a combined/integrated program. The program is named SOT Pediatric but, in reality, it is SO much more than that.

      Occipital fibers – understanding its power in the analysis of a subluxation, of structural/meningeal/vascular components. Every time I apply it (after learning how to do it correctly in the course) there is a state of being at “ease” in the patient, a sense of relief and more tranquility. I used to look predominantly for osseous subluxations, but there is so much more in terms of the response of the nervous system that changes the patient that reduces the tension and even in breathing after the correction.

      I would definitely recommend this course to others, but not to those who think they can learn by osmosis. It is an active and continuous learning program. There are so many ways we can learn from this course and get the concepts right: online classes in very manageable weekly size/length, engaging questions in the call to action, Facebook groups, networking, in-person classes, optimal monitor/student ratio – but what makes it really special is the opportunity to have direct feedback and answers from Dr. Rosen, Dr. Watson and the monitors for ANY question about what we have just learned – the program is extensive and broad in content, but also a very personal journey. They are always available to answer questions and provide support to make the experience count.

      I read this quote by Howard Thurman yesterday and it really speaks to me so much about how I appreciate Dr. Rosen and his team coming all the way from the US to Brazil to teach us here! We will/may never reach his level, but he came and very graciously met us in our desire to become better doctors for our patients, with much higher bar – setting new standards in Chiropractic for me.

      “We meet people where they are and treat them as if they are where they ought to be, and by so doing, we believe them into the fulfillment of their possibilities and love becomes an act of redemption. Love of this sort places a crown over the head of another who is always trying to grow tall enough to wear it.” (Howard Thurman)

      Muito obrigada!!! 🙂

      1. Drs. Rosen and Watson are super approachable and supportive of your growth as a pediatric chiropractor.
      2. The focus is on the adjustment and the effect the adjustment has on the nervous system for the developing child.
      3. I understand more than ever before why kids need chiropractic care.

      This program has transformed my confidence, love, and ability to help pediatric patient.

      Doing intra-oral sphenoid and occipital adjustments, together with other SOT pediatric evaluation/adjusting techniques have impacted the kiddos we see in a positive way. One infant patient I remember became less fussy and enjoyed nervous system function improvements because of the implementation of this work.

      This course helps you build your confidence in helping pediatric patients and helps you truly help them make changes for their continual nervous system growth and development. The material is extensive; however you have a community of doctors ready to help you as you continue to master the material.

      Dr. Rosen, Dr. Watson, Dr. Cooper, Dr. Neill, Dr. Holman, and Dr. Larusso: thank you for being outstanding chiropractors.

      Initially the program felt overwhelming, but the doctors took us through all the steps thoroughly, building on initial foundations. Most of what was learnt could be applied from the first day of any given lesson.

      Personally, this course coincided with a tough chapter in my life. It gave me focus. Professionally it changed the way I approached and treated both infants and adults, widening my scope of practice and giving me more tools for my toolbox.

      I always struggled with my plagiocephaly patients. I am now seeing faster measurable results.

      Yes, I highly recommend this program. Again, it has given me more tools for my toolbox widening my scope of practice. It has given me a more structured approach, taking guesswork out of the equation and given me very specific techniques to apply.

      Drs. Nancy, Martin and Ken are all very approachable, no question is looked down upon. They are compassionate and have great passion for chiropractic, education, students and patients.

      Dr. Rosen’s level of knowledge and mastery, especially around cranial adjusting, is unmatched. The spinal assessment has added a fantastic level of specificity to my previous tonal model of adjusting. The cranial assessment helped me truly distinguish in my own mind how what we’re doing from a chiropractic cranial perspective differs from craniosacral therapy or any of its iterations.

      My confidence and certainty around cranial adjusting is significantly greater even in the weeks immediately following the course. I’m able to see many indicators for unaddressed cranial subluxations in kids who I previously thought were simply not responding to care well, and though I haven’t had time to see a ton of results play out in just a short week since the last part of the course, I’ve already been able to observe objective findings changing more rapidly, and am anticipating groundbreaking results in my practice.

      In the first 6 days of practice since the second course, I’ve applied the specific cranial indicators and intra-oral adjustments on both babies, adolescents and adults several times per day, and in every circumstance, the thoroughness of the correction made was far superior to what I’d been doing in the past in similar instances.

      If you’re at all interested in setting yourself apart as a pediatric chiropractor and want to have the skills to help kids resolve orofacial issues through a subluxation-based, chiropractic lens, rather than always having to rely on other professionals to get results for you.

      I will gladly be signing up for more in-person courses.
