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

Resources Provided

  • Video class modules
  • Evaluation & technique presentations
  • Practical demonstrations
  • Calls to action (CTAs)
  • Complete PDF workbooks
  • Full transcriptions of video classes
  • Email access to Dr. Rosen & Dr. Watson

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

  • Patricia Lydy, DC

    I took this program because I have several grandchildren I have concerns about so felt the need to educate myself. I have a good family practice of which my patients can benefit.

    This program is very informative! Seeing the importance of monitoring the neurological development of infants/children. It makes me want to attend an in person class at some point in the future.

    This course has made me more confident in diagnosing and treating cranial subluxations in my patients. I have resolved several nursing issues with specific cranial adjustments

    Thank you!

  • Dr. Catherine Duhamel

    I took this program because I wanted a better Comprehension of vestibular system.

    This course is short but really useful and it’s not a big investment of time so is perfect for the doctor in practice. With the transcription, the video and the PowerPoint, it’s really easy to learn if English is not your first language.

    I will be better for the evaluation of the vestibular system. I’m an Atlas orthogonal practitioner, so I see a lot of people with this kind of trouble. I will be better able to explain to my patient why they have this symptome too.

    I will use the evaluation and I will show how the forehead and occipital to explain why their posture is so important.

    Thank you again, I love all the program and I recommend them very often.

  • 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.
