Evaluation and Correction of Atlas/Axis Dural Meningeal Restriction
Learning to detect and correct this dural meningeal subluxation is paramount when working with the pediatric patient. This meningeal subluxation is not just a localized fixation but more often a dural meningeal subluxation with a concomitant hypermobility that affects the entire dural meningeal system – from the cranium to the coccyx.
In this online program you will learn how to determine the primary upper cervical subluxation and how to evaluate and correct the dural meningeal component in a safe and effective way. The demonstrations, workshopping and lecture format will give you the ability to determine these dural meningeal subluxations and implement these correction protocols Monday morning in your office. You will be able to help more people and become the go-to expert in your community.
Often the primary subluxation occurs in the upper cervical region due both its vulnerability and strong dural attachments. The most common mechanism for disruption if this area is traction applied to the spinal cord during the birth process. If this subluxation goes uncorrected it can become a primary source of stimulus throughout the child’s life. These compensatory patterns can not only affect proper neurological development (milestones, primal reflexes, and pre-programmed feedback loops) but they can manifest as only mild symptoms early in life and progress to more severe compensatory patterns as the child reaches age 4 or 5.
Your patient outcomes will improve, the ease of your adjustments will improve, your patient compliance will improve. As your practice grows your confidence and certainty will as well.

Assistant Instructor: Dr. Ken Cooper
Dr. Ken’s journey into chiropractic care began during his early years at Chiropractic college, where he had the privilege of being introduced to the esteemed Dr. Larry Webster. It was during his wife’s pregnancies and the subsequent care provided by Dr. Webster to both his wife and newborn babies that Dr. Ken’s passion for maternal, infant, and pediatric chiropractic care was ignited.
During his tenure at Life University in Marietta, GA, Dr. Ken actively participated in seminars focused on the intricate art of perinatal and pediatric chiropractic care. Upon graduation, he wasted no time in pursuing his fellowship in Pediatric Chiropractic from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), concurrently attaining four other pediatric certifications, including the Webster Technique.
Driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence, Dr. Ken immersed himself in the teachings of Drs. Rosen and Watson, pioneers in pediatric chiropractic care. He became an early adopter of their methodologies, participating eagerly in Pediatric Certification seminars. Dr. Ken’s unwavering commitment to learning and mastering techniques, particularly within the Peak Potential Institute, culminated in him being one of the inaugural two doctors certified in Pediatric Cranial Adjusting by Drs. Rosen and Watson.
Dr. Ken is dedicated to transforming the lives of children and families through his profound knowledge and skill.
Feedback from Our Students
Dr. Francois Montbrun
“I took this course to expand my knowledge of taking care of kiddos in the crucial upper cervical region.
I was using a lot of MC2 and thermal checks for adjusting kiddos and have enjoyed especially on kids with plagiocephaly and torticollis using this method of turning the head to check for C1 or C2 restriction. It is also nice to show Mom/Dad this way because they can see the changes in real time.
This course is huge for anyone who wants to expand their knowledge and a must for those wanting to take care of kiddos. Having more ways to find subluxation is crucial for pediatric chiropractors. Dr. Rosen does a stellar job in breaking down the info so it is super easy to apply in the clinic.
Thank you for helping further the profession for the better!”
Dr. Anna Leonard
“I took this program to further my cranial work understanding of the dural meningeal system.
I used this and cranial adjustments with a patient with Arnold Chiari Malformation along with a shunt. Their headaches went away after the first appointment.
This is the second class that I have taken with Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson. They have been practice changing courses! Thank you!”
Dr. Jean Squire
“I took this class to have more understanding about the structure and function of the dural system.
I was working with an older patient having decreased ROM in the cervical spine. In a prone position using heel tension with ROM work. Patient Improved ROM and no pain.
The presentation of the material was great. Keep up the great work you both are doing. It’s a great class.”
