    This is a very in-depth course that requires diligence and passion to persevere. You will gain such fantastic knowledge that you can immediately use in your paediatric practice. Doing this course will provide you with an exceptional number of different adjustments and treatment protocols that will most certainly set you apart from others.

    Personally, it has been tough to get back into study mode, whilst working and managing everyday mom duties, but it has pushed me to show me I am capable and has improved my skills as a Chiropractor greatly – from revised anatomy, better history takings, visual analysis and helping me trust in my hands more. Professionally I have felt I can be more assertive and give realistic goals and outcomes to patients/parents. I truly feel like more of an expert particularly around cranial distortions and their corrections.

    Currently I have a 1-month-old baby girl that started seeing me at 2 weeks because she was very unsettled. Upon examination I had to break the news that this baby’s head was not ideal – a severe scaphocephaly. Immediately I knew how to explain to the parents what this was, what we look out for, how we assess it and treat it. Obviously a possible craniosynostosis is in the forefront of my mind, but we/I have been able to approach this case with logic and goals in mind. So far on visual analysis I can see she is stuck in an extension strain pattern with more marked internal rotation of the right frontal and right temporal bones. There is no sagittal ridging, and her anterior fontanelle is still very much open and palpable. We have done an ultrasound to monitor the sutures and fontanelle for premature closure, and I have been applying my cranial (and pelvic) adjustments. We have already seen some improvement with good growth of her skull, evening out of her nasolabial folds and an overall more settled baby. I feel confident in being able to help this baby but also confident to know when maybe my treatment is not enough.

    I would highly recommend this course if treating paeds and kids is a passion of yours, and you want to be the person of excellence in your area. I feel like this course has given me the skills and confidence to be that Chiropractor!

    Thank you to both of you for always showing up, being so open and friendly, always answering questions etc. and I truly can’t wait to refine all of this in January with the practical.

    “My three takeaways from this program:
    1. Help gain confidence in checking and adjusting paediatric patients.
    2. See more positive impact in practice.
    3. Improve communication skills with parents and family.

    I have gained more confidence and incorporating cranials and seeing more positive outcomes.

    I recommend this course, especially if you have been unsure or ‘stuck’ with helping paediatric patients.

    Thank you for all the help and useful content.”

    1. This program is a game changer for understanding pediatric development and mastering chiropractic for the pediatric population. 2. The course, although comprehensive, breaks extremely complex concepts into digest-able chunks to help apply it immediately. 3. I’m a better chiropractor and my patients are better off because I took this course.

    This program has helped increase my certainty with working with babies and children.

    I just checked and adjusted a two-day-old who was struggling to breastfeed without hurting his mother and immediately after his adjustment he was able to breastfeed without giving mom pain.

    Absolutely would recommend this program! It is the most comprehensive cranial course I have ever taken, and it has increased my adjusting abilities immensely.

    “I BEGGED Nancy to open up a space for me for this course and I’m SO grateful! When Marty taught for ICPA it was one of my favorite courses and I realized there were things in practice I do every day that I learned from him. I wanted to deepen my knowledge and understanding of cranial work as it’s so powerful in practice.

    My three takeaways:

    1. This program really went deep into cranial techniques.
    2. There was so much follow up support with the love sessions.
    3. The homework was really helpful at keeping me on track and implementing what I had been learning.

    I feel like I’m really just starting. I’ve been in practice for 11 years now and I feel like this course is what I’ve been looking for. Now I have a better understanding of the cranial system. I also get frustrated when we get compared to craniosacral therapists, now I KNOW I have a much more robust training and technique.

    I see so many babies with breastfeeding issues. I have been doing oral work for years now but this course gave me so much specificity for the palate, SBJ and facial bones. I love the Sutherland’s cant hook and the fruit jar techniques. Those have been a game changer in my office for babies breastfeeding and breathing,

    YES YES YES, I would recommend this program. This is the master class! Any doc who does cranial and or sees babies should do this.

    This course is so much more than a cranial class. It goes in depth in neurology, anatomy, physiology, brain development, practice management, marketing and personal growth. It really pushed me to be better and we all owe that to our communities and to our profession. I felt so supported by Marty and Nancy and I’m so excited to continue learning from them.”

    “My three takeaways from this program:

    1. Early prevention is key and we can make such a great impact before a child is two yrs old and beyond
    2. Clinical indicators are important in determining the frequency and specific care a child needs
    3. The pediatric exam and case history are powerful tools in patient education and preparing a child patient for care

    Personally, this program has made it clear to me that I don’t want to be a jack of all trades especially when it comes to specific, safe, and gentle care for the pediatric population. Cranial adjusting is so fascinating to me and congruent to how I want to serve the children in my community. Professionally, I have found that people are looking for experts in the field of pediatrics and with this work and diving deeper; I can be so refined in my clinical skills to provide state of the art care for these families.

    I have been applying that fruit jar technique to a handful of adults and children. The outcome has been less overall tension in neck and jaw and incredible healing with those with seasonal allergies.

    100% would recommend this course to others. There are people in our communities looking for us to know exactly when and what to adjust and the expected outcomes and results for the doctor and the patient.

    A huge thank you for your time and patience and for stepping out and sharing your wisdom. You are truly legends and creating a beautiful legacy raising other DCs no matter where they are in practice whether it’s fresh like me or one who has been in practice for decades it’s truly an honor. Dr Watson and Dr Rosen, thank you for doing the work and putting it together for a way to inspire other DCs to learn how to be better clinicians for the pediatric population.”
