Scoliosis: Chiropractic Adjusting Protocols & Home Care Strategies – Support Structural Balance and Long-Term Spinal Correction

Scoliosis presents unique challenges in chiropractic care—requiring more than standard adjusting to create long-term, sustainable change. To effectively support spinal correction, chiropractors need a comprehensive approach that includes precise ancillary techniques and patient-specific home care protocols.

In this online course, you’ll gain the tools to evaluate, adjust, and support patients with scoliosis using gentle, targeted techniques that address spinal distortion patterns, postural imbalances, and compensatory tension. You’ll also learn how to implement simple, effective home care strategies that enhance and stabilize in-office corrections.

This course is ideal for chiropractors looking to deliver deeper, more consistent results for both pediatric and adult patients with scoliotic presentations.

What You’ll Learn

  • Comprehensive assessment protocols to identify scoliosis patterns and related structural compensations
  • Specific SOT®-based and cranial adjusting procedures to support spinal realignment and neurological balance
  • Soft tissue and reflex techniques that enhance structural mobility and reduce spinal tension
  • Home care routines and exercises to reinforce in-office corrections and improve posture, proprioception, and muscular support
  • Strategies for patient education and engagement in long-term corrective care

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?

  • Scoliosis requires a multi-dimensional approach that goes beyond spinal adjusting alone
  • Ancillary protocols and home care support are key to stabilizing progress and improving outcomes
  • These techniques are gentle, effective, and easily integrated into family, pediatric, and wellness-based practices

Who Is This Course For?

Chiropractors who want to:

  • Expand their effectiveness with scoliosis cases at any age
  • Integrate soft tissue, cranial, and postural correction techniques into their scoliosis protocols
  • Provide long-term solutions that empower patients and create lasting spinal change
  • Deliver results that are measurable, sustainable, and neurologically driven

Whether you’re currently working with scoliosis patients or looking to add this specialized skillset to your practice, this course will give you the clinical tools and confidence to make a greater impact.

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

  • Rylee Vanaman

    My takeaway: Gentler adjusting works well.

    It’s nice to have a gentler way to full spine adjusting.

    The gentler adjustments felt really good for a really flared up neck so I will use those the most.

    I would recommend this course if they want to adjust babies.

  • Gretchen Dwenger

    Top Three Takeaways:
    1. The physiological impact of proper CSF flow, as well as the cascade effect of improper sutural articulation on CSF flow.
    2. That some children require more meningeal or structural correction based on their presenting neurological pattern.
    3. That the first two years of life are monumentally important for nervous system development.

    Future Impact:
    This was a phenomenal introduction to the care and education I want to bring into my pediatric chiropractic. I will continue to seek out information to build upon this foundation.

    Relevant Techniques:
    As I prepare to enter outpatient clinic, I absolutely can see myself using the infant spinal analysis and corrections with the pediatric patients I hope to get. I also will take more time palpating and feeling cranial motion in classmates.

    Recommend?
    Absolutely. I think we often fail to recognize how powerful meningeal tension and cranial corrections can be within a curriculum that is more focused on manual adjusting.

    Dr. Rosen, you are a fantastic teacher! I look forward to taking more of your courses and learning from you.

    My three takeaways:
    1. Great analysis , full of science and clarity
    2. Real world experience
    3. Adjusting perspective change

    After this seminar my hopes are to open to TRT and SOT and I hope to learn more with Peak Potential.

    I really loved the cervical stairstep analysis which serves adults and babies.

    Totally would recommend this course.

    This course was knowledgeable, instructive and my favorite seminar so far.
