Evaluation & Correction of the Vestibular System
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

- 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.

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.

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.

I took this program to learn more about the vestibular system and understand our importance in helping more and more patients.
The classes are very didactic. Learning from this couple is always wonderful – always ready to answer questions.
Learning more and more from this couple helps me to do my best for all my patients and be able to help more and more cases and families with the power of chiropractic.
A patient with a lot of vertigo and dizziness, was unable to work, taking medication for 2 months without any improvement, I applied what I learned on the course and after one session she only had mild vertigo when turning over in bed and after 2 more sessions she didn’t feel it nothing more, he went back to working and dancing and never took any medication again.
I’m simply addicted to learning from this couple, I don’t miss any of their courses and I guarantee, learning from them changes your life and practices in every way. I am very grateful for their lives and the opportunity they give us through all these incredible teachings.

It has significant anatomy and physiology of the vestibular systems. Each week the class has just enough paperwork and video to study whether you practice part time or full time
After each week the confidence and knowledge puts you at a level were patients not only see the confidence but feel it when you work on them
All migraines and vertigo obviously get a upper cervical and sphenobasilar evaluation along with pelvis check to determine descending and ascending priority and correction leads to a great improvement in symptoms
Ever chiropractic student should have this course and at least 4 to 5 other courses before graduation,
Like other courses it was awesome.

Taught by Dr. Ken Cooper, Lead Instructor – Peak Potential InstituteFor chiropractors and healthcare professionals seeking clarity in the understanding of cranial bone motion and dynamics.
This foundational course offers a clear, clinical framework for understanding the biomechanics behind cranial adjusting.
You’ll learn:
- The four primary motion patterns of the cranium
- We’ll explore how respiratory motion, dural tension, cerebrospinal mechanics and structural relationships (sutures and fontanelles) guide cranial motion, especially in infants where early patterns set the stage for development.
- How these patterns influence individual cranial bones
- Tools to assess proper cranial movement and function
- The impact of subtle restrictions on growth, development, and neurological integrity
Cranial distortion patterns, including Plagiocephaly now affects nearly 1 in 2 infants, yet many practitioners are trained to view it as cosmetic rather than neurological and biomechanical. This comprehensive program is designed specifically for chiropractors who want a clear, structured protocol for evaluating and managing cranial asymmetry with precision and confidence.
This course goes far beyond identifying a “flat head.” You will learn how plagiocephaly, brachycephaly, and scaphocephaly reflect deeper dural meningeal tension patterns, cranial base distortions, spinal involvement, and CSF imbalance, all of which influence growth, posture, and neurological organization.
This course explores the sacro-occipital respiratory (SOR) motion and its critical role in neuromusculoskeletal balance and dural integrity. Restore rhythmic motion between sacrum and occiput to improve CSF dynamics, postural balance, and structural integrity.
