Three great takeaways from this course: 1. Clearer, More Structured Paediatric Assessment Framework 2. An excellent system for evaluating infants and children through: refined cranial, spinal, and dural tension assessment 3. A great understanding of segmental motion, tone, and developmental movement patterns.

This course has greatly enhanced my skills and confidence in assessing and treating infants. I now have a clearer framework for identifying tension patterns and applying gentle, effective techniques. Personally, it has fueled the “why” in terms of my passion for paediatric care.

During a follow-up with a 3-month-old infant presenting with frequent arching, irritability, and mild feeding difficulties (often associated with reflux-related tension). The palate arch was very narrow which caused latching issues. I applied a gentle occipital cranial release as taught in the SOT course to balancing cranial motion. Also did a Sphenoid Flexion Release via Pterygoid Contact Outcome: Within a few sessions, the infant was noticeably calmer neck and head posture improved tolerance of feeding positions, reduced arching and easier settling for sleep Parents reported the baby was more comfortable and content, and feeding sessions were smoother, less arching noted and generally the family was all round so relieved.

Yes, it is a great way to learn new adjustment skills, up-skill and improve pediatric care for the community. Improves networking with other health care professionals.

“I serve a large pediatric population that comes in with plagiocephaly, breastfeeding issues and colic. I wanted to gain expertise in being able to help them on a more profound level. I wanted certainty that I could correct the subluxations and release ideal tension.

The course lays the groundwork on performing an examination. All the tools that were presented were able to be implemented in the office the next day.

It was great to know that there were other professionals around the world that were also dedicated to making a difference in the lives of others abs improve their professional mastery. I was able to spend time on myself and learn, which is one of my favorite activities. I loved that I could do the course at my own time abs when I wanted. I was able to re-watch the videos to have a deeper level of mastery.

The fruit jar was a technique I had known from taking the ICPA SOT® course years ago but I had not reapplied it until this year. I routinely used the fruit jar to help those who had “chronic” sinus discomfort that would not drain get relief. I also used it routinely with many who were undergoing Invisalign who were able to increase their results in a quicker amount of time.

I would absolutely recommend this course if someone is wanting/willing to really work. It is a great time commitment but it gives so much information that has direct application! The videos allowed time to re-watch for further mastery. The QA format allowed for greater understanding and application. The Facebook group allowed for questions to be looked up seeing how others hassle the same questions and concerns.

I appreciate the understanding of the completion of examination, assessment, indicators, adjustment and follow up care. The communication was pivotal for sharing the importance of the care and the whole package was important for clinical application. Many times we have learned bits and pieces and without the full picture it is difficult to bring it home to the clinic.”

“Bueno, decidí tomar este curso primero por la vasta experiencia del Dr Rosen y su profundo conocimiento en el cuidado pediátrico, a esto se agrega la capacidad de enseñar de manera detallada y específica cada elemento del programa de pediatría, pudiendo notar esto en la entrega que pone en cada una de sus clases, aclarando conceptos y dando ejemplos sobre cómo abordar en cada caso.

Además de todo esto, sentía que me faltaba un conocimiento más profundo sobre el manejo pediátrico, más allá de la formación de pregrado y los seminarios de fin de semana. Buscaba una formación con Certificación que fuese lo más completa posible y a la vez accesible desde un lugar tan remoto como Chile. Todo esto lo encontre en este programa del Dr Rosen y aún más.

1. Es un programa muy completo, que incluye manejo craneal y espinal, además de ofrecer demostraciones claras y precisas sobre las técnicas junto con ordenar de manera clara el contenido.
2. Permite el tiempo suficiente entre clase y clase para digerir el conocimiento así como también la posibilidad de aclarar dudas a través de las sesiones regulares de preguntas y respuestas.
3. Tiene una gradualidad temática muy ordenada, pasando de conceptos básicos, al análisis, ajustes y demostraciones hasta terminar en casos de razonamiento y condiciones específicas.

Ha cambiado totalmente la forma de trabajo en mi práctica, ya que si bien se enfoca en pediatría, ofrece herramientas que puedes aplicar desde el mismo dia que las aprendes también en adultos, a través de un abordaje más suave, menos resistido, de tipo tonal con respuestas más rápidas y duraderas en los pacientes.

Recuerdo un caso de un paciente con iliaco PI persistente que luego de los estudios con el programa, note que en realidad el problema de fondo era un sacro AI, aplique técnica sobre el ligamento Sacro-tuberoso y fue increíble como se fue notando la baja en la tension del ligamento así como la modificación de los indicadores a nivel de ligamento nucal. después de ese ajuste no hubo mas alteraciones en la zona Sacroiliaca. en el caso de niños, me ha tocado mas de un bebe con problemas de cólicos que resuelve tras el ajuste espinal.

Solo dar gracias al Dr Rosen y a la Dra Watson por su entrega, por su pasión al enseñar, por su paciencia para educar, por su esfuerzo en cuidar cada detalle, y espero, humildemente poder tener algo de esa chispa que brilla en los ojos de ellos cada vez que hablan de Quiropráctica, Dios les bendiga y sigan enseñando a muchas generaciones mas esta hermosa profesión.”

I developed a much stronger foundation in SOT analysis and technique. The programme equipped me with practical tools I can immediately use in practice. The mentorship and support throughout the course were invaluable in building my confidence.

It has expanded my clinical skill set considerably and given me more confidence in managing complex cases. I feel better equipped to assess and treat patients using a more integrative and structured approach. Personally: The program has deepened my passion for chiropractic and reminded me why I love what I do. It has also improved my ability to stay present, grounded, and patient-centred in my daily practice.

A specific instance where I applied the techniques from the course was in my paediatric practice. Using the visual cranial analysis we were taught, I was able to identify subtle cranial bone restrictions in an infant who was struggling with feeding and general irritability. Although I am still refining and practicing the correction techniques, I have already seen noticeable improvements. After applying gentle cranial work based on what I learned in the program, the baby showed a positive response, improved feeding, better settling, and overall calmer behaviour. This experience reinforced how valuable these assessment and correction tools are, and it has encouraged me to continue developing my skills in this area.

Yes, I would definitely recommend this course to others. It is incredibly in-depth and offers a level of clinical understanding that you simply can’t achieve through shorter seminars or weekend training. The content is rich, detailed, and highly practical for day-to-day practice. That said, I would recommend it to chiropractors who are truly committed. Because there is so much valuable information, it’s easy to fall behind if you don’t stay consistent. I often found myself going back over modules to make sure I fully understood the material and while that required discipline, it was absolutely worth it. Overall, the course provides exceptional value for anyone who wants to deepen their SOT knowledge and elevate their clinical skills.

“My three takeaways from this program:
1. This is the most in-depth continuing education you will do (most likely) and it will take a lot of time to properly use/integrate into your practice.
2. Be ready for some pushback from parents as far as working intra-oral contacts. As confidence in speaking about why you are doing specific techniques improves, this will get better/easier.
3. Contact the Drs. and ask questions. They are very helpful and truly care about helping you grow your confidence and skill set.

Having 2 kids under 3 years of age myself and running a PX office over the last (almost) year, this course has been a life saver for tough cases. I am so thankful for having taken this course.
We had a 2 week old kiddo enter the practice with colic. Parents had slept about 1 hour each per night consistent since the baby was born. All 3 were completely exhausted and the parents expressed how they felt as though they were unable to enjoy being 1st time parents. After using several of the techniques in this course, the baby is much calmer. We are still searching for the primary/root cause as it seems to be changing frequently, but the parents stated “this is the best investment I have ever made.”

100% I would recommend this course to anyone who deals with the pediatric population frequently in their office. Once again, this is the most in depth course I have ever taken. It gives step by step directions to help even the toughest cases.
You both have been so understanding with the time it took me to catch up on the course through opening a practice and having a baby. I appreciate your patience with me and the knowledge you have provided me. Thank You.”
