My three takeaways:
1. Increase certainty with a more tonal adjustment with dural tension.
2. being able to explain neuroscience & CSF & birth.
3. How important it is to know which cranium and spinal areas to adjust.This will help become a nervous system focused chiropractor with kiddos that are raging bulls, having a more tonal background to calm the nervous system is key.
I really liked the cervical stairstep. I feel it will be very appreciated in my clinical setting because helping release dural tension near the brainstem is very helpful with birth trauma patients.
Dr. Jake was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.

My three takeaways:
Cervical Stairstep with tiers.
The adjustment chart and how you check one and then check the next one.
Feeling the CSF.I love that I can use these for children and adults.
The techniques most relevant for me are the Cervical Stairstep and the common cranial holds.
Yes, I would recommend this course. I loved the hands on and how knowledgeable Dr Jake was.

My three takeaways:
1. Dural attachments, dural fascia, and understanding the tensegrity of it is all so important when seeing great results
2. Between ages 0-7 is when children absorb most information for their entire life. Chronic subluxations also start from 0-7.
3. Releasing dural tension helps the osseous adjustment become more smooth and regulated.This course has broadened my awareness for serving the pediatric and family community in a REAL way, not just an Instagram way.
Learning SOT and advanced pediatrics will be incredibly useful for me. I also see that utilizing dural related releasing techniques for my patients.
I am extremely grateful to be learning this information because it can help all ages of people.
