    I am a board-certified lactation consultant as well and teach chiropractors how to integrate this first milestone into their practices. This course will be suggested to all my students due to the sheer depth that you all covered in regard to 1. cranial work, 2. ascending vs descending patterns as well as the 3. soft tissue variations that need to be considered when helping these babies get to the breast.

    This program has such depth, and I know I will be a lifelong student of your work. Your teaching has been implemented already into our clinic, we will continue to educate our patients based on your models and I will use your analysis and techniques on our staff and see the results with my own kiddos and family! As mentioned above, all my students need to have your work in their lives.

    I will pick what you taught me with just the sphenoid and palate work. What a difference palate work makes with a breastfeeding baby! I define a successful breastfeeding visit with 3 parameters. Can the baby latch? Is it painful for mom? Did the baby transfer enough milk based on the size of the baby’s stomach, age and weight? All these parameters can be and have been accomplished by checking the sphenoid and correcting it.

    I will suggest this to all my students! The depth and care put into your classes is exceptional. Thank you for making this online and so easy to do on our own time!

    Thank you for stepping up and doing this not only for our profession but for helping us be better docs for our communities!

    1.This program creates a strategy based on fact. It helps you as a practitioner to explain progress and regression to patients. They feel more confident in you as you can physically (document) how things change as I find they are generally not very observant. 2. This program has helped me to give an informed and factual reason to findings I had found and observed in practice. 3. The program is very well put together by providing multiple options in techniques to either use what feels more comfortable to you as a practitioner and also having more techniques that wouldn’t not necessarily be your go to, but have options for those patients that respond or need something different or a different approach.

    This has been so beneficial to me where I feel I am so much more thorough in my service and my usual treatment protocol now is so much more efficient by adding some SOT into my appointments. I am able to get results in half the time. This program has given me so much more confidence and belief in my own abilities as a Chiropractor. I have been able to see a very big change throughout this year in practice that my community considers me as the go to with really anything. They will use me to first see if I can assist to resolve or how we can make a plan to get resolution. My patient base has increased with a lot of pediatric patients; I am so happy about that as that has always been where I wanted my career to move to and become as efficient and as knowledgeable as possible. One of the most valuable things I have to thank you guys for giving me through this program is the ability to get from newborns, toddlers and even teens nervous systems to completely trust me and open up to me. I really feel my career chose me and not the other way around and this has been so rewarding and a game changer for me. On a day-to-day basis parents comment on how their children would not allow people to touch them, talk to them or connect the way they do with me. They ask their parents to come visit me and have excitement to come see me. I feel it comes from confidence as a practitioner due to your program being so thorough and your way of teaching techniques being so on point that the kids feel so much better.

    I had a 10-month-old with scoliosis that was severely delayed with his milestones, he had not even started rolling. He was not engaging, always crying, and had no interest in eating food. Within 3 weeks he could roll and sit unassisted, interacting with everyone, and started eating solids. This case stands out to me as there was no previous intervention with OT, physio or anything and I could have this much of an impact. So blessed to be able to do this.

    Absolutely would recommend this program, it is well worth the money in what you get out of it. Support, information and we have not even done the practical side of it.

    1. You will finally understand cranial movement 2. You will be able to help those more difficult cases in practice 3.You will learn how to properly examine a paed patient, have your baseline set of neurological indicators, an amazing toolbox for adjustments for an array of conditions, and then as treatment progresses how to measure the change.

    Personally: I have been adjusting my own kids. assessing each of their own subluxation patterns- I’ve seen such a positive change in “symptoms”. Having completed the course in a somewhat challenging year has allowed me to grow as a person. It was a nice gentle reminder that I can do hard things. Professionally: The course expanded my clinical skills, giving me a more integrated and holistic approach to assessment and care. I feel more confident in assessing and managing more complex paediatric cases.

    I used some of the techniques on my newborn son, who at 2 weeks developed a cold and terrible congestion. It was incredible to see firsthand how the adjustments helped clear his system so quickly.

    Yes absolutely. I would recommend it because of the wealth of knowledge I have gained. You will gain the clinical skill set needed to treat most paed cases.

    Thank you for making this possible for South African Chiropractors. I look forward to the hands-on seminar in January!

    “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.”

    “My practice is pointed towards caring for children so I am always looking to add to my toolbox ways to improve my technique and better serve the kids that come through my door.

    My three takeaways: 1. The nuance of cranial adjusting takes time to learn, but it pays off in dividends once you get the hang of it. 2. CSF balancing is life changing for kids on the spectrum 3. Take the time to perform a thoughtful and thorough exam. This reveals the primary issues and helps the client progress quickly and completely.

    This course has impacted me professionally by enabling me to use different techniques with my more challenging clients. One boy in my practice made marked improvement when I switched his adjustment from activator to a more nuanced SOT approach. Personally, I was a bit overwhelmed because I added a second office to my practice, so I fell a fair bit behind and catching up was an undertaking, but I am glad I made the time!

    I have a young girl on the spectrum that I have been seeing for months. We saw some improvements in the first few months, but the progress had plateaued and I decided to add in CSF balancing and checking for internally rotated maxilla. Since adding those adjustments in, she has made marked strides, most notably her speaking has gone from garbled slurring to clear words.

    I would recommend this course for other chiropractors interested in pediatrics but specifically for those taking care of a autistic population. Using these techniques can help their sensitive nervous systems in a way that more aggressive techniques cannot.

    I got behind on this course because my practice pace has increased this year, but I am so glad I made the time to finish because the techniques I have learned have been invaluable in caring for my clients! I would advise that any provider considering this course ask themselves ‘could I give the absolute best possible care to any child that walks through my door today?’ If your answer is anything less than a 1000% yes, you need this course.

    Thank you for imparting your wisdom!”
