    This program is a game changer!
    1. I love the neuro foundation that you build and reinforce with subluxations, adaptations in the brain and neural pathways.
    2. I thought it was very helpful that you reiterate clearing the spine and dural system prior to working on cranial, simple info but important.
    3. There’s a lot of info to grasp; I like that you shared it many ways. All the techniques then reviewed and went into condition specific techniques related.

    This program has changed my perspective of chiropractic and how I adjust. I’ve started incorporating all the indicators, exams and adjusting protocols. How I communicate with my practice members and how I prescribe care is from a brain-based lens, even more now.

    I’ve had several wins already! Working with a one-month-old with cranial imbalances, tension and restriction, seeing her 2x week 4 weeks, she had a cold and was able to recover in a couple days vs a week like the rest of the family. She was also breathing, sleeping and feeding better post adjustment. I also just started working with a 7-yr-old boy with autism. He’s minimally verbal. He only had been adjusted once, using upper cervical dural meningeal techniques. His mom said he counted to 100 on his own for the first time ever! (I’m not saying one adjustment fixes everything, it’ll take time to connect and grow his brain and body, but that was pretty sweet!)

    Yes! Absolutely would recommend this program! The new skills you will learn will expand your brain, your practice, support your patients on a whole new level and educate your families. This stuff sets you apart!

    You guys are wonderful and so appreciated! I did the first hands on course while learning this. It was a game changer to bring that style of learning in during these online courses. Highly recommended mixed program.

    “I took this class to gain a deeper understanding of pediatric chiropractic and was hoping to gain technical skills to help kids as well as confidence in my technique. Three take-aways would be how to properly diagnose cranial problems, confidence in proper technique and new tools to treat pediatric pain and other difficult issues.

    This class has impacted my life because it has given me tools and understanding to help my own children in new ways and better manage their growing and developing nervous systems. Has impacted me professionally by increasing my skills to a place that chiropractic was able to change a life and now parents and other professionals send their babies and children to me for that change.

    Had a 4 year old with red ear, active pain, crying. Used dollar sign neutralization technique, ventricular bulb as well as adjusting temporal and occiput. Yes I would recommend this course to all chiropractors who are serious about being specific with their skill and anyone identifying as a pediatric chiropractor. I believe that the skills gained in this class could bring the entire profession to a place where there is no doubt that what we do for children is safe and needed. I think all chiropractors could learn so many different things from this class. The most important thing they will learn is specificity. Something I have noticed for years is the lack of cranial education in our profession, most know there is a certain bone that is wrong and that they ‘adjusted’ it, but are never very clear on how or what they did. This class clarifies the what, when and why very nicely. I now have the skills to identify which way a cranial bone has shifted and have an entire tool box to help each specific issue.

    Drs. Marty and Nancy have made learning these topics fun and relevant. I know the future of this specialty is in good hands with these two. I truly believe anyone working with children NEED to take this course.”
