Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development
Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development
Have you ever noticed something developmentally different about a child but your concerns fell on deaf ears? It is not until the situation becomes obvious that proper intervention is recommended. Knowing before the situation or condition escalates is paramount to achieving a more efficient, less stressful (both to the child and family) resolution.
It is important to note that these developmental “glitches”, while they may be common, are not normal and can affect proper neurological development (milestones, primal reflexes, and pre-programmed feedback loops). They can also manifest as only mild symptoms early in life and progress to more severe ones as the child reaches age 4 or 5.
Much has been written about milestones and primitive reflexes and their effect on developmental potential. What we are offering to you is the missing link to optimal childhood development – the effects of cranial and facial distortions on human potential.
In this online program Drs. Rosen and Watson will walk you through an understanding of normal childhood growth and development and the structural distortion patterns to look for that may be signs of developmental challenges.

✓ Developmental anatomy, physiology, and neurology of the developing nervous system
✓ How to recognize developmental “glitches” in a child’s development
✓ Specific conditions such as, torticollis, plagiocephaly, missed milestones, retained primal reflexes, tongue-tie, and cranial facial distortions are discussed
✓ What you as a parent or health care provider can do when you suspect something is wrong

I took this program to expand my detailed knowledge of Pediatric Chiropractic.
There were great Details, Sound Knowledge Base and Professional Presenters.
I know have a more solid foundation and certainty with Pediatrics.
I have been seeing many more babies in practice and getting great results.
Thank you!

I took this program because I wanted to study SOT in more depth. So I chose this course and hoped that it would provide a good study on craniofacial distortion.
Having studied this course, my three takeaways are cranial and facial distortion, developmental potential and nervous system development
I tried to be more careful and in-depth when seeing patients, and it had a positive impact on my life.
Thank you very much for giving such excellent lectures.

I wanted to better ‘see’ cranial distortions and understand the factors contributing in a particular presentation. I wanted to better understand the chiropractic lens. I feel chiropractic care can be an important care component for my clients with oral motor, speech and feeding issues. I wanted to have a better understanding of which clients would benefit the most. Also I wanted to better explain my rationale for suggesting the pursue chiropractic care
Gives a good understanding of the various systems which could be contributing to cranial facial distortions. Stress the importance of early intervention when warranted. Presented a case for professional intervention but also a worthy set of exercises which are easily integrated into daily routines and which impact growth and development
I entered the course with a fairly good understanding of the systems reviewed but it was helpful to get a better understanding of the chiropractic lens.
Thanks for offering this class to parents and related professionals. I am an SLP who enjoys collaboration with local chiropractors.
