I do like the email reminders of where I am at in the course and what I need to get finished. That accountability piece is huge. I do have a much better understanding of how the cranial bones move with inhalation and exhalation now.

I have gained more awareness around cranial work.

Yes, I would recommend this course, if just to gain more awareness around the subject.

My three takeaways:
A much deeper understanding of cranial motion and its biomechanical relevance to overall neurological and functional health. A new perspective on assessing and supporting patients, particularly in complex or paediatric cases, where subtle dysfunctions can have significant impacts.

Professionally, this program has significantly refined my clinical approach. It has given me greater confidence in assessing cranial patterns and integrating them into broader neurodevelopmental and functional care plans. This has been particularly valuable in my work with children, where small changes can make a meaningful difference. Personally, it has deepened my appreciation for the body’s innate intelligence and adaptability. It has reinforced a more patient, observant, and holistic approach, not only in practice but also in how I view health and well-being more broadly.

I worked with a patient who had ongoing jaw restriction and sinus pain that hadn’t fully resolved with other approaches. On assessment, it became clear that there were underlying cranial restrictions affecting both the TMJ and sinus drainage. Using the techniques from this course, I incorporated gentle cranial work over a few sessions. The patient began to notice their jaw moving more freely, with less discomfort, and at the same time experienced a significant reduction in sinus pressure. What stood out was how interconnected these systems are—and how addressing the cranial mechanics created meaningful changes in both symptoms and overall comfort.

Yes, I would highly recommend this course. It provides a strong biomechanical and neurological framework for understanding cranial motion, supported by clear clinical reasoning and practical application.

The program is exceptionally well-structured. I am glad I was able to take part. Thank you.

Three Takeaways:
1. Specific cranial motions and how each bone interacts with each other. 2. The beginning of what indications to look for that correspond to various cranial distortions. 3. Sphenoid is extremely important.

This course has given me the tools necessary to critically think about cranial movements when assessing/treating infants. Furthermore, it has given me the confidence to start seeing harder infant cases.

Having only fairly recently started seeing infants, I have yet to see results, but I am still beginning to be able to observe cranial distortions and infer the proper method for treatment. Additionally, I can confidently explain to parents what my observations are and what I intend to do to correct it.

Yes, Dr. Ken Cooper does a great job at explaining cranial motion beyond what is just on the slides. At first, I was fairly disappointed with the cost associated with the length of each video, but he specifically adds overall value.
