Evaluation & Correction of the Vestibular System
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.

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.

I took this program for an understanding the vestibular system and acquire specific tool to examine patients.
My three takeaways are the importance of examination to help patients understand what is happening, setting objective goals for patients and improve confidence in my practice.
This was a good review of SOT system with terms that is easier to understand when communicating with patients.
I have used the vestibular assessment tool on one of my patients with hereditary spinocerebellar ataxia. Even with the language barrier it was easy for her to understand what we are doing and the goals that we are achieving and about 3 visits in we see major improvements in her balance as well as her kickboxing movement coordination.
Thank you Dr. Rosen and Dr, Watson. You are always going above and beyond in putting these materials together.
Dr. Jan Filip Depauw
Atlas/Axis dural restriction Exam, well explained differentiation between primary descending pattern or ascending pattern and the interactions, the understanding of importance to give treatments to children/babies early enough.
Professionally we were very well trained for the ascending body lesion pattern but not enough in the descending lesion pattern. I’m very happy to have done the course which supported my thoughts and feelings.
In the past I controlled only the dominance eye test to determine the normal posture. It is clear that if you want to be exact you need to control the vestibular system. With this analysis I found out with a patient with frequent dizziness while dancing and doing pirouettes. She has dominance of the right eye but has dominance of hand, foot and ear on the left side. When closing the left eye while acting, pirouettes clearly less dizziness
No problem to advise this course to other people because of the well explained neurologic interactions. It is so important to treat the body as a system where everything acts together as a whole system. I found this in this course very well explained and stimulates us to search further in the patient his/her problem..
I want to thank you both for your expertise and wanting to share with us. Years ago I bought a book by the chiropractor Jonathan Howat, I was glad to see some slides of him in your presentation. It is chiropractic expertise which must be given further in the next generations. Keep on going.
