Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development
Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development
Have you ever noticed something developmentally different about a child but your concerns fell on deaf ears? It is not until the situation becomes obvious that proper intervention is recommended. Knowing before the situation or condition escalates is paramount to achieving a more efficient, less stressful (both to the child and family) resolution.
It is important to note that these developmental “glitches”, while they may be common, are not normal and can affect proper neurological development (milestones, primal reflexes, and pre-programmed feedback loops). They can also manifest as only mild symptoms early in life and progress to more severe ones as the child reaches age 4 or 5.
Much has been written about milestones and primitive reflexes and their effect on developmental potential. What we are offering to you is the missing link to optimal childhood development – the effects of cranial and facial distortions on human potential.
In this online program Drs. Rosen and Watson will walk you through an understanding of normal childhood growth and development and the structural distortion patterns to look for that may be signs of developmental challenges.

✓ What you as a parent or health care provider can do when you suspect something is wrong

Feedback From Our Students
Rosemary Schiavi, DC, DICCP
I took this program as a refresher on information.
This course is easy to complete, easy to understand and good information. This was a good review.
I thought things were explained well.
Meghan Kretz, MS, CCC-SLP, CSOM
This course was recommended to me by my friend and colleague. I was hoping to learn the causes of cranial facial distortions and their impact on development.
My three takeaways are: CSF buildup and its effect, common is not normal, and the effects of compensations that form when development is abnormal
This course has reminded me and made me more aware of how birth/development can be impacted by tension and other restrictions
I have been able to apply this info to some of my cases. A student with severe sensory aversions, toe walking and low tone has a history of traumatic birth and vacuum delivery. It has been hard to get parents to follow through with cranial work, but I hope this course will have helped me explain the rationale better so they can understand.
Thank you! I loved the doctor shares the most and also the Facebook page was interesting too!
Dr. Kim Hyun Mok
I took this program because I wanted to study SOT in more depth. So I chose this course and hoped that it would provide a good study on craniofacial distortion.
Having studied this course, my three takeaways are cranial and facial distortion, developmental potential and nervous system development
I tried to be more careful and in-depth when seeing patients, and it had a positive impact on my life.
Thank you very much for giving such excellent lectures.
