    “I love working with kids and pregnant ladies. I strongly believe that forming a good foundation is much easier than solving the problems later in age. I hope to get a set of tools in hands to serve the paediatric populations in Asia, having more kids to grow functionally healthy is my vision.

    The programme is systematic and the group is being very supportive. The contents of the course are eye-opening to me, as a beginner in the field of paediatric chiropractic in South East Asia.

    I’m more confident to deal with kids in my practice, and the case sharing sessions provided me with great insight when we come across difficult / rare conditions. My adjustment style has changed so much from more mechanical based to neurological based.

    My favourite is CSF balancing technique for the majority of my patients, including adults. It’s incredibly useful in Singapore, such a stressful city. Besides that, I started to attract newborns into my practices. I’m having a hearing dysfunction newborn under my cranial treatments.

    Definitely would recommend this program. It’s an excellent skill set to have in hands and I love the systematic content structure that comes along with group discussion.

    Personally I love the systematic content structure that comes along with group discussion. As a beginner in paediatric care, I would say it is comprehensive yet beginner friendly. The Dr. Sharing sessions provided me with practical advice from senior chiropractors. Most importantly, I feel supported to practice such a unique technique far from the US.

    Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson, I am grateful for your guidance and wisdom! I’m so happy that the course is available online which I could access without physical barriers”

    Cranial work is so imperative to start early on, and we have the opportunity to make as much change as possible for their entire life. Even if you chose to adjust with different styles of input, the systematic analysis from this is GOLD. Confidence and clarity of structural vs. dural subluxation indicators was a huge take away and make explaining pediatric chiropractic care huge to parents

    I was taught a lot of this information by the head doc, but then to go through this course and actually understand the background made a huge difference, it was much easier to memorize once I was able to learn the 30,000 foot view of it all.

    We had a long term spinal only (TRT) based patient, who in wellness care started talking about how his ears were constantly getting red and hot out of nowhere, he was feeling inflamed, etc. I decided to do the ventricular bulb on him for a few visits and he was feeling like a new person. Then we did a cranial evaluation and now he is under consistent cranial + spinal care and just this week told me how much this work has changed his life.

    So much about this course is important, but more chiropractors need to know and do craniopathy!

    This was fabulous, I have learned so much, and I am looking forward to taking more courses.
