“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.”

“I am ALWAYS wanting to learn more and value you all! I have taken your ICPA courses twice back when you taught there and was excited to take this!

There is an incredible amount of information that I will continue to come back to and study and learn and develop my cranial skills. I also really enjoyed the simple right now strategies that we could utilize in practice as we just started to incorporate this work into practice.

As a parent I have of course been thinking about and utilizing what I am learning on my own daughter. I also love combining the knowledge I have with this lens and think about how it all ties together so beautifully. It is so much fun!

It has really helped me tie together some of the concepts I have learned on airway, tongue ties and palate assessment to kids of all ages in practice (and my own child)
I would recommend this program. It is a lot but an amazing foundation to come back and visit and study ongoing to develop a deeper understanding and skill set
I think all chiropractors should invest in continuing to deepen their knowledge of what we do and how we impact the developing child and this course helps deepen knowledge and also gain more adjusting assessment at an advanced level.

Love you guys! Thanks for your work!”

“1. This program has vastly built upon my education with the ICPA 2. Dr. Rosen’s course with ICPA provided great information, but the weekend time frame given made the content very overwhelming. This program being spread out made it much more manageable and digestible and not as intimidating. 3. I am confident that the information presented in this course provides a very holistic approach to treating the pediatric population, especially in the realm of neurological development, an area in which I felt I was lacking prior.

I’ve been practicing the content on my own two children (now 5 months and 2.5 years old.) I’m not currently practicing, but when I do start up again, I now have the competency and confidence in building relationships with my midwife and son’s oral tie revision dentist for patient referrals.

I used the techniques on my now 5 month old son following his tongue tie revision when he was 6 weeks old. The revision alone did not help with the nursing issues like it had with my previous son. The protocols helped with difficulty keeping a latch, air gulping and severe gassiness.

I would recommend this course because it gives a very thorough approach to caring for the pediatric population. I appreciate that there are different techniques that can be used to treat a specific issue, making it accessible to any practitioner/technique.”

“I took this program because I was seeing many cranial issues in practice and most importantly with my niece. I wanted to have a better understanding of the cranium function and its impact on the rest of the body.

I know have a detailed/structured exam to exhibit confidence in my expertise to parents. I can better communicate with parents about the source of the issue. (I still need more practice on this) and I have a much better ‘feel’ and understanding of cranial bone movement and mechanics. (This program is just the beginning; this will be a lifetime of learning)

I have more confidence and guidance on where to begin. I feel I have many tools in the tool box.

I am seeing a huge improvement with nursing/latching, balancing vagal tone (gag reflex) and sympathetic driven kids.

This course will give you all the information you need. Can be overwhelming, but rewarding when things begin to ‘click’.

I did not have any type of direction when treating children prior to this course. This course is INTENSE, but if you feel like you are missing something and want to improve patient outcomes I highly recommend this course. Within a few months I was seeing a HUGE improvement in patient outcomes.

I was overwhelmed in the middle of the program (life in the way) and when I took a step back and spent a week picking out my favorite techniques for specific conditions and positive findings, it allowed me to regain focus and better understand.”

“When I first started taking this course I was working for a doctor who was seeing a lot of pediatric patients at the time. I wanted to be able to help with these patients if need be. I saw what she was able to accomplish with my son the previous year and knew what a difference it made in our lives. I wanted to be able to provide that type of care for others as well. Since starting the course I ended up transitioning to my own practice. It has been a big change going from being an associate to a solo business owner. I ended up working with a lot of Amish babies who needed cranial work.

Self-paced can be great but it also does not allow for quick clarification or hands on feedback. Less is more with any form of chiropractic. Be precise. Don’t force something you’re working on… go with the least amount of resistance.

I have been able to see how important getting care early on is with babies in so many aspects of development that I didn’t even begin to comprehend beforehand. I can appreciate the work put into a pediatric practice and also know it’s not what I want to be doing right now. I can definitely still help babies and children more now than I could before which I am grateful for. I have experienced how this work can help all generations of life.

I have used the fruit jar technique and maxilla internal and external rotation with a lot of my patients. It has helped with draining and sinus issues. I have also seen TMJ issues improved and resolved in one case with the specific finger placements. I’ve seen ears drain within seconds after doing cranial work and overall improvements in patients reporting more calmness and less stress after CSF balancing.

I would recommend this course because all chiropractors should have some basis of CSF, cranial and exam work regarding babies and children.

There is so much to be learning in this course that you could take it 5 times and still be learning new things from it. It really shows how much dedication, experience and time that has been put into the field of pediatrics and how little we are taught in school. It is unfortunate we do not have this course worked into our curricula in school.

The dedication of Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson to sharing and teaching the knowledge they have gained over the years is humbling.”
