My three takeaways:
1. CSF imbalances are common in the population, and there are ways to correct it without medical intervention. 2. Pediatric adjusting is minimally invasive and there is not a one size fits all for treatment of the pediatric population. 3. Subluxations of the cranium are possible (something I did not realize before this class!)

Personally and professionally, this course has taught me that there is way more out there to learn about the chiropractic profession aside from what is taught in school. I didn’t know anything about SOT technique before this course, and in fact had not even heard of it. Thank you for teaching me there is always something new to learn in this profession.

I am not licensed yet, so I have not been able to apply these techniques aside from on a baby doll or skull model. However, this course has encouraged me to discuss with other docs about possible treatment options for infants and pediatric patients.

I would 100% recommend this course! It has taught me so much and I am so glad I stuck through and finished it, even with the hard times I’ve been going through.

You guys are awesome for what you’re doing! Thank you so much for the opportunity to learn and grow my expertise.

“I chose to take this course to enhance my experience of what I already know w/CST and adjustments. I also wanted to have more experience applying SOT® techniques for my pediatric population.

Three valuable things I would share w/colleagues:
1. Attention to detail in recognizing difficult problem areas and how to solve them.
2. Understanding in-depth anatomy is a must.
3. Excellent job at tying all the concepts together.

I have been a physical medicine specialist for almost 17 years. This course has helped me to find my niche and really educate not only my patients but my students how important it is for us to articulate and help our pediatric population in a different way without overwhelming them with drugs – showing that hands on modalities can help w/healing processes. While it took me a while to get through this course, the biggest take off for me recently was after Class 4 working w/the concept of sphenobasilar junction correction after I do a frenectomy release. Feeding coordinations have improved significantly post frenectomy. I was doing CST prior to release but when I fine-tuned it after the class; I noticed a big change post frenectomy w/improved latch. It doesn’t matter how long one has been practicing or doing similar work. You can always learn more but even better enjoy a different perspective to help enhance your skills. I have found this class to be invaluable to me. I never stop learning. And Dr. Martin and Dr. Watson made this class very user friendly! For me, I am the first ND (I believe) to take this course w/physical medicine background. I feel more providers need this course that are working with the pediatric population. When we look at environmental factors as well as internal factors, there’s so much more we can do with touch. I would encourage this class to be open to NDs, chiropractors and osteopaths. I just want to say thank you both for being patient with me getting through this course. While the videos were difficult to lip read, I found the transcripts to be helpful and going through the modules and exercises was a fantastic reminder and tool to process the information given in the course. I appreciate the accommodations you made to make this class accessible for me. Thank you both again so much!”

I took this program to improve my ability to take care of the pediatric patient and offer superior care while continuing my knowledge over the years of practice.

1. Pediatric care is vital with cranial growth and development in the first two years of live, we have to set these kiddos up for success in their nervous systems.
2. We must continue to grow and develop our own profession past adjustments to the spine only, cranial work is powerful and much needed.
3. Working with children allows us to make such profound changes and these principles can be applied to our adult patients as well.

I feel that I have worked on my own children in a much different way as well as seeing a much better outcome in my own patients and quicker results.

Plagiocephaly is a very common condition I see in my office. We have much higher success rates and less cranial helmet referrals after implementing all the cranial work.

I would recommend this program. We need to constantly continue to better ourselves for our patients and continue to grow our knowledge in the pediatric field. We should be required to take this in school.

This coursework is amazing and so powerful. This coursework offers pediatric care and is nothing short of amazing. To be able to see changes immediately in your practice and positive outcomes for kids is truly a passion and I love what this course has done for myself and my practice members.

“I decided to take this course after hearing about it from my friend Dr. Amy Spoelstra. She has been caring for my 3 year old daughter who initially presented with significant developmental delays. My daughter has seen amazing results and I knew I needed to improve my skill-set as a chiropractor to not only help her but also other children. When I registered for the course my goal was to become more confident in my analysis of pediatric patients as well as become more familiar with SOT® and cranial work.

The first takeaway would be that I wish I would have learned this technique and analysis before graduating from chiropractic school. The second takeaway is that everything I learned during these 10 months was easy to implement in practice and we’ve been able to help more complex pediatric cases. The third takeaway is that I’d like to continue learning from Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson!

This program has helped me analyze and care for my own daughter who has had significant struggles neurologically and physically. I’m so thankful to feel confident and to be able to address the nervous system imbalances she has faced. Obviously I’ve also been able to apply what I’ve learned in practice as well and I’ve seen great results in our pediatric patients.

The first baby I was able to help using these techniques was a 4-month-old who had difficulty nursing. She was not latching well and was not gaining weight. Within a few adjustments the baby was nursing well.

I would absolutely recommend this course to others as a way to become better equipped to deliver quality care to the pediatric population. I wish I had known this before graduating school.
Thank you both!”

“This course deepened my knowledge of dural meningeal evaluation and intra-oral corrections.

The program shared a comprehensive spinal and cranial evaluation with a systematic approach to corrections. It does it gradually, and that helps you process all the new in-depth information so you can use it instantly.

This program has added to my toolbox an array of adjusting techniques for each meningeal, tonal, and structural adjustment procedure. This growth has provided the certainty that I will be able to serve my community.

The approach and techniques are beyond what other doctors offer in my community. This last year, I have seen faster results with intense cases from vacuum extractions, plagiocephalies, and feeding difficulties due to dural restrictions.

I recommend this program to other Chiropractors seeking to take their knowledge to the next level.

It has been a mind-blowing program where my brain has overflowed with knowledge. I am excited and honored to use this knowledge to help the next generations lay a strong foundation for wellness.

I want to thank Dr. Martin and Dr. Watson for pouring their knowledge and passion. ‘We never know how far-reaching something we may think, say, or do today will affect the lives of millions tomorrow.’ – B. J. Palmer”
