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

I took this course to learn more about how cranial facial distortions affect different aspects of development. I also wanted to learn when looking at a babies/toddlers facial structure how certain distortions are related to cranial subluxations and then to know the correction.

This program hits on every aspect of development from gross motor to primitive reflexes to things that maybe non-chiropractors don’t learn like the dural meningeal system. This course helps to tie all those things together and helps non-chiropractors learn the signs of cranial facial distortion and what they can do to help.

This course has helped me to look at treating children in a whole body manner. When treating any child you can’t just look at one thing to help them you need to think about every aspect of their development and the things that could be affecting their development. This course has allowed me to do that on a bigger scale.

I had an 18 months old in that I have been treating for torticollis, which has resolved. She comes in because she started crying during diaper changes. After listening to the dural meningeal lecture I began treating her for dural tension, which helped her so much.

I took this program to help with infant care in practice.

My takeaways are how to notice facial distortions, body movements, tongue tie.

This program has helped me notice cranial distortions in my grandchildren, and has helped me help moms.

I took this program because I want to stay up on cranial work, and continue to learn.

This overall Peak Potential program is furthering my knowledge, expanding my skill, providing more confidence, and allowing me to interact with other professionals better.

This was an introductory class and available for non-DC’s. It still is great to keep this information at the top of your mind.

One child recently came in with severe plagiocephaly, he was headed for a helmet and I started working on him and it improved significantly, very noticeable to the visual eye. He came in last week and had been fitted for a helmet and the doctor told them it may only be one month of wearing it instead of the 6 months they initially thought because his head had improved so much.

Keep doing what you are doing.

This course was recommended to me by my friend and colleague. I was hoping to learn the causes of cranial facial distortions and their impact on development.

My three takeaways are: CSF buildup and its effect, common is not normal, and the effects of compensations that form when development is abnormal

This course has reminded me and made me more aware of how birth/development can be impacted by tension and other restrictions

I have been able to apply this info to some of my cases. A student with severe sensory aversions, toe walking and low tone has a history of traumatic birth and vacuum delivery. It has been hard to get parents to follow through with cranial work, but I hope this course will have helped me explain the rationale better so they can understand.

Thank you! I loved the doctor shares the most and also the Facebook page was interesting too!

Thank you so much Dr. Rosen for access to the course.

It was very informative and very helpful. I treat infants and always understand that the first 1000 days are critical in their development and that many things mimic a tongue tie and we work with an osteopathic physician and some chiropractors to help alleviate somatic dysfunction, subluxations, occipital condylar compression and other birth trauma. We use non-surgical laser 1064 nm wavelength (Babylase) to help release fascial restrictions and integrate cranial nerves to improve function. Sometimes surgical intervention is needed but not before calming the ANS. And we follow the infants closely (every 3months) to monitor proper growth and development. Generally treating and collaborating for Structure, function, behavior, neurology, nutrition and posture.

I was particularly intrigued by the CSF study at 6 months of age that could help to identify those that were diagnosed with Autism later.

Again, thank you for this course and for standing up for the most vulnerable amongst us. We preach every day that ‘common does not equal normal.
