CSF: The Lifeblood of the Central Nervous System
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is essential for protecting, nourishing, and regulating the central nervous system. When its flow is compromised, neurological balance, immune function, and overall systemic health can suffer—especially in infants, children, and individuals with chronic health challenges.
In this advanced online course, you’ll gain a clear understanding of how CSF is produced, circulated, and affected by cranial and spinal imbalances. You’ll also learn specific evaluation and cranial adjusting protocols that restore healthy CSF flow and enhance the function of the entire nervous system.
This is a must-have class for chiropractors who want to deepen their cranial adjusting skills and elevate their impact on neurological health.
What You’ll Learn
- The physiology, production, and circulation of cerebrospinal fluid
- How cranial and dural restrictions affect CSF flow and neurological integrity
- Key indicators of CSF imbalance in pediatric and adult patients
- Step-by-step cranial techniques to support optimal CSF movement
- How restoring CSF dynamics enhances immune function, detoxification, and neurological regulation
Resources Provided
- Video class modules
- Evaluation & technique presentations
- Practical demonstrations
- Calls to action (CTAs)
- Complete PDF workbooks
- Full transcriptions of video classes
- Email access to Dr. Rosen & Dr. Watson
Why Take This Course?
- CSF is essential for brain and spinal cord function—its flow must be addressed in any true neurologically-based care model
- Cranial distortions and dural torque can significantly impede CSF dynamics, leading to long-standing health issues
- Gentle, specific corrections can dramatically improve outcomes in patients with sensory, developmental, immune, and chronic neurological concerns
Who Is This Course For?
Chiropractors who want to:
- Advance their cranial adjusting proficiency
- Expand their impact in pediatric, family, and wellness care
- Address deeper neurological patterns that influence long-term health and healing
- Offer a vital piece of care often overlooked in traditional chiropractic protocols
If you’re ready to refine your skills, expand your clinical effectiveness, and bring a new dimension to your chiropractic care—this course is for you.

Meet the Instructors
As early as first quarter in chiropractic school they were attracted to each other’s commitment to chiropractic and the pursuit of excellence. Their combined 80 years of personal and clinical and teaching experience, in delivering the chiropractic adjustment is unparalleled in the chiropractic profession. Their international outreach through teaching, writing and lecturing has been a driving force in their personal and professional careers since their first seminar taught together as students, in 1979.
Their years of experience have taught them what works and what does not work to create a successful practice and lifestyle. The more competent and comprehensive your expertise you will find that more patients will seek your services and your practice will grow exponentially.
Feedback From Our Students
Kristina Schramm, DC
My three takeaways:
More knowledge on CSF and tangible ways to explain it to patients. 2. Easy takeaways that I was able to use in my practice right away. 3. Self-paced, made for a very easy integration into the rest of my schedule.
More knowledge always makes me grateful to be able to share it with my patients and also feel more confident.I have a 4 year old showing signs of ADHD and impulsive behavior, and have started using these techniques on him right away. He is doing much better at home already.
Thanks for the opportunity!
Kathy Cantwell, DC
This course really helped to clarify the flow of CSF techniques and when to use them. I loved the notes and the transcripts for future reference and loved seeing the individual demonstrations.
The hands on demos gave me great ‘take-aways’ to use on patients right away. I love the flexibility of getting to watch and re-watch the classes at my convenience.
I used the ventricular bulb technique on a young boy with ODD and was able to calm him to continue with the rest of his treatment. Such a great tool!
Love these programs and the doctor shares with the extra tidbits
Daniel Tierney, DC
This program is knowledgeable, clinically useful, with concise learning materials.
The program has provided greater depth of understanding to the interconnectedness of the human system. By using this information, it helps bring yet more tools to my patients.
In following the CSF Regulation Technique protocol, it was noted post application the patient’s body system was more relaxed.
I recommend this course as a good overview course. If you want to better understand the interconnected cerebral fluid flow via cranial, sacral and fascial impacts this is a great place to start.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on the topic.
