“I took the course to further my understanding and ability to treat pediatric patients; knowing the SOT® model of addressing the entire body when doing cranial work, I hoped to gain a set of tools to help complement my pediatric cranial practice. My three takeaways:
1. The pediatric certification program is extremely thorough, even for those of us already doing SOT®;
2. The course teaches a holistic approach, not a technique;
3. This course is not anyone looking to take a weekend seminar to pick up a few new tools, it’s a deep dive into understanding and delivering pediatric care.

Within 1-2 months I was able to help my patients more than before the course, and it has helped me understand how much treatment I was leaving on the table – and that other pediatric specialty chiro’s I’ve been co-treating with aren’t taught about much of this either!

I recently adjusted a 4 year old to address chronic hearing issues (all tests normal) and fluid in the ears. Later that night his ears ‘popped’ while hiccuping and he asked if they had turned the TV up and why was everyone talking so loudly.

Not all pediatric courses are equal – which I’m unfortunately learning as parents come to me from highly regarded ped offices near me and yet I’m seeing foundational things left unresolved or even unaddressed.
In chiropractic school it seems we get enough pediatric training to not be dangerous, but we have no idea how unprepared we really are. I would highly recommend the course for anyone wanting to thoroughly understand why and how pediatric care needs to be different from treating adults. I recommend this course specifically because the cranial adjusting being taught here is in its truest, safest, and most effective and complete form. It’s a huge commitment, but there’s also huge support and guidance.

Ten months is a long time for a course, however I’d almost say the amount & depth of the material might be better over 12 months. As my clinic Dr. at Palmer said, ‘SOT® is a technique for people who really REALLY like to think.’ I’d like to thank you both for continuing to grow this institute. I give presentations every year about what I do (which now feels like a sliver of what you guys do), and the physicians I’m educating are always surprised and disappointed there isn’t an SOT® chiro near them, especially peds.”

“My goal was to become more proficient and detailed in my care for youth athletes in particular. I also like being able to take care of babies when the opportunity presents itself! The level of detail in this program is astounding and far beyond anything we learned “Advanced Pediatric Technique” in school.
My three takeaways:
1. Commitment to Chiropractic will determine your success
2. Chiropractic care is so much more comprehensive – and this class gives us so many tools!
3. The cranium is an integral part of neurologic health.

Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson are so passionate about chiropractic – you can’t help but get excited with them! I am beginning to implement some changes with my youth athletes to address their care even more comprehensively than before and interest them in their nervous system health overall. I was able to adjust my 3 month old nephew and help relieve some digestive distress.

I absolutely recommend this course to anyone interested in growing a pediatric practice! The level of detail and comprehensive nature of the course leaves you certain that you can make a significant change in these children and set them on a path to optimum function!

Take full advantage of everything this program has to offer! The course is laid out in a very organized fashion and the CTA’s are very helpful in integrating the information. This program is so comprehensive and will allow you to take care of pediatric patients with much more confidence and certainty!
The information and format are fabulous. Thank you so much”

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.

“This is a very thorough program with so much information. Be prepared while the information is technically actionable, it takes time to gain the necessary skills. Focus on the areas you already have a good base with and start with those areas as you learn new things. I think taking the in-person class in addition to the online would be beneficial.

Personally, it has given me tools to assess my own 2 children. Professionally, at times I have been frustrated with my lack of ability to “feel” things I am supposed to but watching as well as reading the transcripts gives me confidence that with (more) (a lot more) practice I will be able to get where I need to be.

I would recommend this course to others not only for in-depth presentation of information but also (even if not intending to work with children) because of the ability to work with tonal changes in people. This gives a niche that many chiropractors do not take advantage of.

I look forward to flushing out this course with some of the other classes as well as in person when the seminars come back to Boston.”

“I enrolled in this course to enhance my understanding of craniosacral therapy and its potential benefits for specific pediatric conditions.

1. The course is filled with a wealth of information. 2. I hadn’t fully grasped the profound impact of craniosacral therapy on our bodies or the significance of accumulated CSF fluid. 3. Prioritize checking the sphenobasilar region first.

This program has personally aided me in addressing sensory processing issues in my nearly 3-year-old, who is a sensory seeker. This has significantly contributed to her calming down. Additionally, my youngest, approaching two, experienced recurring sinus congestion for months, and now we’ve achieved better management. Patients resembling my own children have shown remarkable responses.

I treated a patient with recurrent ear infections, even after having tubes inserted that later fell out. By focusing on the sphenobasilar and employing a technique to drain the Eustachian tube, his chronic ear infections disappeared within two visits. I look forward to observing the ongoing impact on this particular patient.

I highly recommend this course to others; it has been incredibly insightful and beneficial. The content is rich with valuable information, and the practical applications have made a positive impact on my understanding and skills. If you’re seeking a course that combines scientific knowledge with real-world effectiveness, this is the one for you. I wholeheartedly endorse it.

My experience with this course has been transformative. The in-depth exploration of craniosacral therapy has significantly expanded my chiropractic toolkit. The practical insights into addressing various conditions, coupled with a focus on the sphenobasilar region, have proven remarkably effective in my practice. I believe other chiropractors would benefit immensely from this course as it seamlessly blends endless knowledge with hands-on techniques, offering a valuable and comprehensive approach to patient care.

Thank you very much!”
