Evaluation & Correction of the Vestibular System: Enhance Neurological Function and Postural Stability Through Targeted Chiropractic Protocols

The vestibular system is a cornerstone of balance, coordination, and spatial awareness—yet it’s often overlooked in traditional chiropractic evaluations. Dysfunction in this system can manifest as poor posture, delayed motor development, sensory integration challenges, and chronic instability in both children and adults.

In this focused online training, you’ll learn how to assess and correct imbalances in the vestibular system using gentle, effective chiropractic and cranial protocols. This course gives you practical, neurologically-based tools to identify dysfunction and restore healthy communication between the inner ear, brain, and spine.

Whether you’re working with pediatric neurodevelopment, adult balance issues, or chronic postural challenges, this class will give you the skills to make a profound difference in your patients’ lives.

What You’ll Learn

The anatomy and function of the vestibular system and its role in postural regulation
How to evaluate vestibular integrity through neurological testing and clinical observation
Chiropractic and cranial adjusting protocols that support vestibular balance and sensory integration
How vestibular dysfunction affects spinal stability, motor control, and coordination
Techniques to address compensatory patterns in the cervical spine, cranium, and dural system

Why Take This Course?

Vestibular imbalances are often at the root of developmental delays, learning difficulties, and balance disorders
These protocols offer chiropractors a safe, effective way to influence deep neurological systems
Restoring vestibular function supports better posture, movement, attention, and overall nervous system regulation

Who Is This Course For?

Chiropractors who want to:

Expand their neurological and cranial adjusting skill set
Address root-cause imbalances in patients with sensory, motor, or postural challenges
Support developmental milestones and balance issues with confidence and clarity
Deliver more comprehensive, results-driven care in family and pediatric practices

By adding vestibular assessment and correction to your clinical toolbox, you’ll unlock a new level of care—one that addresses foundational neurological patterns and helps patients achieve greater function, stability, and wellness.

Meet the Instructors

Dr. Martin Rosen, DC, CSCP, CSPP & Dr. Nancy Watson, DC, CSP

As early as first quarter in chiropractic school they were attracted to each other’s commitment to chiropractic and the pursuit of excellence. Their combined 80 years of personal and clinical and teaching experience, in delivering the chiropractic adjustment is unparalleled in the chiropractic profession. Their international outreach through teaching, writing and lecturing has been a driving force in their personal and professional careers since their first seminar taught together as students, in 1979.

Their years of experience have taught them what works and what does not work to create a successful practice and lifestyle. The more competent and comprehensive your expertise you will find that more patients will seek your services and your practice will grow exponentially.

Feedback From Our Students

Jacob Fiamingo, DC

I took this program because I have patients and my family members that have vestibular issues.

My three takeaways for this program are:

Connection between TMJ, upper cervicals and the SI joints with spinal posture and forward head posture
1. The role of CSF to substantially lessen the weight of the brain, the amount of CSF and brain function / autism connection.
2. Examination of the occipital compression/sideslip and Atlas/Axis
3. Thank you for your time and knowledge.
Dr. Lisa Geiger

I have had a variety of vestibular problems in my body that I did not understand very well and I was curious. And this leaves me better educated to help my patients enormously better.

My takeaways are: Work at this steadily, you’ll get more out of it. Take copious notes in some form. Do the CTAs diligently. They really hold the key to getting it on the next level.

I am now looking at my body and the body of my son very differently. Understanding the body and dural tension way better. I now have more thorough exams.

Great program. Thanks for these. They are a manageable size and the gift of going at my own pace is powerful. Thanks.
Dr. David King

I took this program to learn more about assessing the vestibular system and alternative interventions.

The course was easy to take. The information is relevant. The information is presented clearly.

I have increased confidence in assessing and treating people with vestibular dysfunction.
