Praise For: Cranial Facial Distortions and Their Impact on Childhood Development

I took this class as a refresher on facial distortion patterns and how to correct them. I was also interested in digging deeper into retained reflexes.

This program reviewed how to do a baby cranial exam. It was a good reference for parents and other practitioners needing an understanding of how the baby can be helped with chiropractic care and it was a good review of reflexes and time frames for them.

Thus course has helped me do better exams and helped me understand retained reflexes better.

I have a baby that came into the office with failure to put on weight and constantly throwing up. He was tiny and grumpy and at 3 months had not put on any weight from birth. I did a more thorough exam than I might have before and started adjusting him and working with his cranials and he is not throwing up as much. He is getting bigger and thriving and his head is not flat on the right side any more.

It was a good class. Thank you.

I wanted to take this course online so it could fit the ebb and flow of my life time-management-wise. I hoped to get out of it in more detail on topics Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson had touched on in classes I have taken, and also to experience it being broken down at a different pace and rhythm than the other classes I have taken, It did not disappoint.

Having taken classes in person and online with Peak Potential Institute, and having watched the program develop and deepen over that time, three takeaways include: These classes are extremely well made and thought out. With so many simple talking-head videos passing for online courses out on the web, these classes provide transcripts, slide shows, and regular assignments. Love that. Kajabi provides a robust platform that has not lagged or skipped in my experience and I love that. This legacy of education is priceless. I also appreciate that some of the classes offered, like this one, are geared towards not just chiropractors, and that broadened the usefulness as it was considered and included information that helped me be more effective and agile with parents.

My niece’s son was just born with a fracture in his skull due in no small part to birth trauma and birth idiocy on the part of the hospital. My thought process in treating and evaluating MJ as well as how I communicate with my niece and sister have been impacted and we all benefit from that.

Well done. Your programs just get more and more robust and luscious!

In my practice I see a lot of kids in their first few weeks of life and many with breastfeeding problems. I was hoping to gain some tips to better serve my patients.

My biggest take away from this course was to give me better language to help educate the parents of the children I serve so that they better understand the role of chiropractic and cranial adjusting to the overall health of their families’.

This program has helped in terms of being better able to explain my findings and the role of chiropractic and cranial work for the youngest of patients.

I feel that my connection and education has resulted in better relationships with the parents of the children I serve as they are better able to advocate for their children and follow through with home care and keep their appointments. Thank you!

I enrolled in this course to help me identify cranial facial distortions and patterns more effectively and to be able to explain to parents why they should seek additional consultation.

My three takeaways are:

It’s important to understand the relationship between structure and function.
Parents should trust their instincts and seek professional help if concerned.
The first year of life is so important for neurological development.
I will look at my clients differently and try to match structure with function more successfully.

I gave a parent specific examples of cranial facial distortions: one eye bigger, ears sitting lower, head tilted and referred.

This was a lot of valuable information. I wish you could have shown many case studies all throughout but especially in the later weeks of actual patients and pointed out the distortion patterns you see, what they mean, and what you would do about it. It is also helpful to see a patient from initial consultation to completion of care.

I wanted to learn more about cranial adjusting. I didn’t realize this was more geared toward the general public with an overview of cranial and development.

To add to my practice and help support patients more: 1 – do a more thorough eval of primitive reflexes in infants 2 – tongue tie check 3 – I like the cranial distortions sheet to use as a guide on evaluations

I like the list of specific things parents can do to help their child develop.

I added more primitive reflexes to my exam and have a better base line to check pre- and post-care.
