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 decided to take this course to gain a better understanding of cranial adjusting for children & to gain more confidence in helping families.

My three takeaways:

It’s a lot of work! You will only gain knowledge if you put the modules into practice.
Although it’s not a symptom-based model, there are specific areas to check the infant/child for specific issues that may have brought them into chiropractic.
This is just the beginning of learning – this work requires a constant focus & desire to learn more to help children.

This course has given me more certainty to share with families.

I am also an IBCLC so I used this course a lot in helping breastfeeding moms who were having trouble latching their newborns. I utilized several of the cranial techniques to help babies relax more to breastfeed & become more efficient feeding.

YES, I would recommend this program. Even though I have been in practice for nearly 25 years there is always something more to learn to help others.

This course is definitely a lot of work but it pays off in the end to see the differences in patients, especially children. The parents who have brought their children in since doing this course are super happy & can see I have a lot of certainty & confidence in what I am doing.

This has been such an invaluable learning experience. Thank you!!”

“1. It gives a good foundation for infant and pediatric adjusting techniques and protocols that help take any guesswork out of seeing patients in this age rage.

2. Ten months is a long time to commit to a class and might seem intimidating at first, but the pacing is done well enough that even if you fall a few classes behind it’s easy to catch up and not feel overwhelmed

3. There is a lot of information and some of it is definitely more immediately applicable in day to day practice, but I can see the importance of everything that was provided. In fact I never once felt like I was just being given filler information to draw anything out.

I originally took this class because I wanted to get more comfortable with seeing patients in this demographic. While I do feel more confident in my abilities now I also feel like this has opened up a whole new world regarding my understanding of early childhood development and the importance of the work we do. Basically While I do have a little more confidence in my abilities I also now know enough to understand how little I actually know. It’s kind of caused a bit of a prospective shift with how I understand my adult patients as well.

I have a few younger patients who are afraid of adjusting because it looks like it hurts mom/dad and they’ve had chiropractors in the past that treated them like little adults and it was uncomfortable. So doing a few of the evaluations and adjustments I learned in this class have helped at least three kids in my office start to trust and benefit from chiropractic to the point that they’ve told a parent that they wanted to come back to see me. I’ve specifically used some of the newborn assessment tools and adjustments to help a few babies with feeding issues and dural restrictions. Additionally I now have a few tools to help young patients dealing with ADD and ADHD.

I’d pretty much recommend this course for all the reasons I previously stated. Additionally I really wish for all the money I spent on grad school they could have spent at least one class teaching about pediatrics and infants. That being said, this course was definitely better than anything a school you probably offer as a core curriculum so it’s definitely worth the time and cost.”

“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.”

“I wanted to learn more about the infant skull, distortions, and to be able to correlate with clinical findings.

My three takeaways are 1. In depth facial distortions patterns 2. Correlation of clinical findings to clinical findings 3. More confidence when taking with parents about how chiropractic could help their child

I have a much better understanding of the infant child’s skull, spine, and sacrum than I ever have.

Every single day, I use something from the class. Whether it is sacral pussyfooting, Cranial bulb, or Sutherland’s Cant Hook, Occipital lines.

If a chiropractor is treating children, this is a MUST TAKE class. Chiropractic school training does not adequately prepare or teach us how to take care of children.”
