Feedback from Our Students


  • Wendy Coburn, DC

    My three takeaways:
    Very in-depth cranial adjusting, more confidence in visual analysis, overall more comfortability and confidence working with infants.

    This program has helped me serve more babies and families, which has helped to create more ease in families. It has led me down a path of pediatric adjusting that I didn’t know existed and am excited to continue learning

    There was a mother whose baby wasn’t breastfeeding at all and she was just about to give up and I used the frontal molding technique, and the baby latched instantly right in front of me and has been breastfeeding ever since.

    Yes, I would recommend this program because there is no other course out there that is as in-depth or comprehensive. I wouldn’t refer to or trust my child’s care with someone who hasn’t taken this course

    I am super appreciative of the dedication that you have to this work and to the chiropractic profession. I am grateful to have learned from you; I am sad that it’s over but look forward to continuing in the future.

    My three takeaways from this program:
    1. All the cranial work.
    2. The SOT technique.
    3. Overall pediatric information about nervous system development and the impact of different subluxations on the bodies.

    I have gained more knowledge, more confidence and more clinical efficiency. I feel more confident when working with babies and I also have much faster results when working with babies with cranial deformities.

    So far, I have used the techniques I learned mostly with babies with torticollis and plagiocephaly, with great, precise and fast results.

    Absolutely would recommend this program. I think this program is a must for every chiropractor working with children and babies. SOT technique is very effective, and the knowledge offered by this program is essential and has greatly improved my practice.

    It is a very complete program, and I enjoyed it.
