Visual Analysis – It’s Role in Determining Cranial Distortion/Subluxation Patterns
Visual Analysis – It’s Role in Determining Cranial Distortion/Subluxation Patterns
Before your hands ever touch the patient, your eyes should already be identifying the story their cranium is telling.
This online seminar with Dr. Martin Rosen introduces the essential skill of visual cranial analysis—a foundational tool for identifying cranial distortion and subluxation patterns. Learn how to detect subtle asymmetries and visual indicators that reflect deeper neurological imbalances and structural compensations. Whether you’re new to cranial work or refining your observational skills, this training will enhance your precision and clinical confidence.
See What Others Miss. Visual analysis is more than observation—it’s a diagnostic gateway to the structure-function relationship within the cranium. This seminar will help you sharpen your perception, identify key distortion patterns, and deliver more precise and effective care.

My takeaways:
Being able to refine the visual analysis from the pediatric program. It helped solidify some of the concepts that I did not fully understand in the pediatric course very well. Able to see and compare the different distortions in pediatric and adult populations. Understanding more of cranial movement and how they can they can impact a person’s health and well-being.I am able to feel more confident in visual analysis, and it allowed me to redefine those visual concepts in preparation for the pediatric cranial exam after I take the spinal exam first, of course!
So, I am not fully licensed but at my job with FedEx, I was able to use the visual analysis on some of the adults and see some of the distortions. They are not as noticeable as a child but I was surprised to see some that were very interesting, that it got me thinking how would I treat the patient once I am licensed to do so.
Yes, I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to get more into cranials especially pediatric population, or redefine concepts that people may not fully understand
I loved the course, even though it took me a while to finish, I was able to take my time and actually use the concepts I learned in observation. Once I am licensed, I cannot wait to put all the things I’ve learned from you all and start making a difference in my patients’ lives.

It has allowed me to observe people/patients and see cranial distortion. It gave me a bigger picture in the diagnosis of different issues involving airway, learning and behavior.
It has helped me with the children. It will help me to finish the Invisalign treatment for my Pilates teachers’ children. I have a better understanding of why one child expands easily and the other two children are more difficult. They need hands on therapy prior to continued expansion.
Yes, I would recommend this course. Any healthcare professional who treats children or adults with airway issues, anxiety, TMJ issues, etc. should take this course. It gives a broader view of what is possible.

Visual analysis is difficult, and practice is key.
This program has kept me accountable in practicing visual analysis/cranial adjusting and continuing to improve my clinical skills.
I was able to identify a maxilla subluxation I would have previously missed.
Yes, I would recommend this course. This course is pure chiropractic and helpful to refine skills.
I have really enjoyed all of your courses so far.
