Pain Control In The Pediatric Patient

Cranial Evaluation and Adjusting

This 120 page booklet (6x9) contains all the cranial examination and adjusting protocols necessary to build and sustain a successful pediatric practice. Whether you are new in practice or have years of experience there are procedures and protocols that will offer new options for your pediatric patients. There are CSF directing techniques, specific cranial bone corrections, sphenobasilar corrections as well as techniques that can be used for specific clinical presentations common to the pediatric practice. Intra- and extra oral corrective procedures are included.

This booklet are excerpts (3 chapters) from Dr. Rosen's complete pediatric adjusting book - Pediatric Chiropractic Care.

Spinal Exam and Adjusting Protocol

This 120 page booklet (6x9) contains all the spinal examination and adjusting protocols necessary to build and sustain a successful pediatric practice. Whether you are new in practice or have years of experience there are procedures and protocols that will offer new options for your pediatric patients. Evaluation and both low force and standard chiropractic adjusting protocols are demonstrated for the pelvis (specific sacral corrections are highlighted), lumbar, thoracic, cervical and occipital-atlas condyles. Also extremity corrections are covered to help support the spinal adjustments.

This booklet are excerpts (2 chapters) from Dr. Rosen's complete pediatric adjusting book - Pediatric Chiropractic Care.

Tongue-Tie and Palate Evaluation Procedures

The issue of tongue-tie (ankyloglossia) is becoming more common in the pediatric population. To address this issue, Dr. Rosen discusses the protocols necessary to evaluate tongue-tie and what effect the different grades of tongue-tie have on the developing child. He also covers the different approaches to correction of the tongue-tie, when surgical intervention is necessary, and when more conservative procedures are appropriate. The correction protocols for the palate are also covered in instances when tongue-tie is present.

In this DVD Dr. Rosen demonstrates the protocols for evaluating the palate and its relationship to cranial mechanics and tongue-tie. Determining proper palate anatomy and physiology is crucial to evaluating the proper function of the entire cranium. Understanding palatal mechanics and anatomy allows the practitioner to determine how the cranial sutural and dural meningeal system is working. The effect of the palatine and maxillary bones on cranial bone growth, functional issues (i.e. nursing, feeding and speech) and the neurological development of the child are of paramount importance. Correction protocols for specific palate distortions are demonstrated as well as how these distortions affect the rest of the cranium.

A second disc contains a PDF workbook for reference.

Pediatric Examination and Evaluation Protocols

This two DVD set covers the examination procedures for the pediatric patient from infant to pre-teen.

Disc 1 explains and demonstrates the chiropractic and neurological examination protocols for the preambulatory infant. It includes palpation, reflex testing and chiropractic evaluation procedures necessary to assess the infant's spine. This evaluation will help the chiropractor to create a functional baseline and determine the major or primary subluxation pattern.

Disc 2 demonstrates the evaluation protocols for the toddler to pre-teen using chiropractic and neurological indicators to create a practical clinical assessment model.

Disc 3 contains a companion PDF workbook.

Evaluation and Correction of Vagus Nerve Imbalances

The vagus nerve has been shown to be involved in many physiological functions including autonomic nervous system balance, digestion and elimination, heart rate, seizure activity, respiration, and emotional stability. It contains motor and sensory fibers and has the widest distribution of any other nerve in the body. If it is impeded along it course, either by traction or compression forces, its ability to transmit impulses is altered. Evaluation of the structures, spinal vertebra, dural meningeal system and the fascial system through which it passes is crucial in determining and facilitating normal function.

In this 2-disc set Dr. Rosen discusses vagus nerve anatomy and physiology, its impact on overall health, and how to evaluate and correct the major biomechanical imbalances (subluxations) that can interfere with the vagus nerve's function. These corrective procedures include: atlas, occipital and temporal bone corrections, clavicular and first rib subluxations, fascial and muscle reflex balancing (diaphragm and psoas muscle) and soft tissue reflex indicators. These procedures are demonstrated and explained for both the pediatric and adult population. If you want to be more effective and efficient in your practice this DVD is a must.

The second disc contains a PDF workbook.

Clinically Applicable Cranial Techniques for the Adult and Pediatric Patient

In this 3-DVD set you will learn specific cranial adjusting protocols for a variety of adult and infant symptomatic presentations as well as techniques to enhance their overall state of well-being.

Techniques to reduce inflammatory processes, work with sinus issues, hyperactivity, attention issues, balance and coordination challenges, sympathetic and parasympathetic imbalances are included, as well as cranial adjusting protocols to enhance vitality and cerebrospinal fluid motion.

Each technique protocol is taught in a lecture and hands-on demonstration format. They are designed to be implemented immediately into your practice regardless of your present spinal technique adjusting paradigm.

A correlation section and PDF workbook is included to allow you to reference which techniques best suit your patient's needs and your current skill level.

Pediatric Spinal Evaluation and Adjusting Protocols

Different adjusting procedures are necessary to deal with the delicacy of the pediatric spine. In this video we address these specific protocols as well as the different types of subluxation patterns - especially meningeal - that are often primary in this segment of the population. Demonstrations of multiple adjusting protocols for the entire spine are shown and correlations to the examination findings are discussed.

Some Techniques Included

• Occipital condyle correction
• High occiput correction
• Atlas and axis dural restriction
• Pediatric cervical stairstep and Orthobionomy corrections
• Trapezius fiber analysis and correction
• Occipital Fiber Line 1 and Line 2 analysis and correction
• Lumbar rotational and inferior tippage evaluation (R$C Factors) and correction
• Sacral corrections including: Sacro Occipital Reciprocal Motion Technique, Anterior Sacrum Correction and Sacral Pussy Footing
• Pelvic structural and meningeal corrective protocols

Since brain growth, development and neurological imprinting are greatest in the first two years of life, acquiring the necessary skills to reduce neurological interference in this segment of the population is paramount to allowing the child to express their full potential.
