    I took this program to learn more about how to better identify and resolve vagus nerve restrictions. The vagus nerve is one of the most important things to evaluate in so many situations. While there is a lot to remember, just take things one step at a time to help each patient in the way they need. More chiropractors need to know this information!!!

    I feel I am able to better evaluate and treat the occiput, especially in infants. A mom brought a newborn to me that was not latching well at all, no lip or tongue ties and suckling (on finger) was not being done well. Baby had a slight head tilt to the right with a lower occiput on the right. After doing an occipital correction alone, the baby started to latch much better, along with a huge improvement in suckling. Atlas also needed correction.

    They do a great job breaking the information down into small, easy to learn stages, with more information than I was ever taught in school!

    This course was awesome. I feel like I’m connecting more deeply with chiropractic adjusting and principles that affect our entire system. This makes me feel like a more confident and competent chiropractor.

    One specific instance is how the temporal bone can affect the jaw because I see so many patients with jaw deviation that’s not always coming from jaw musculature.

    I would recommend this course to everyone since I don’t feel like you learn this material anywhere else. If you are a chiropractor you need to know this information and your patients need you to know!

    Thank you so much for a great course, I’m really looking forward to the SOT certification program over the next year.

    My three takeaways:
    1. I liked having the transcripts there to follow along with the videos.
    2. The course is short and informative, making it easy to fit into a busy working life.
    3. Videos with demonstrations help to show exactly how to perform the evaluations and corrections.

    Professionally I hope the program will be helpful with some of my more difficult patients, especially those with POTS and those who seem overstimulated.

    I haven’t used the whole protocol in practice yet but plan to with my POTS patient who is booked next week. I have used the psoas and occiput corrections and have been able to balance those out.

    I would recommend this course to others who have an interest in some vagus nerve specific protocols because it gets straight to the point making it easy to accomplish.

    Thank you so much for the fantastic course! I decided to take the course as we see so many babies with reflux, colic, and nervous irritability. Adolescents that are otherwise “healthy” with vaso-vagal syncope, etc. who doctors can’t help, and adults in severe sympathetic overdrive who have burn-out, stomach and digestive issues with no apparent causes, etc. I wanted to know more to be able to help these patients better.

    I see the immense impact of the Vagus nerve and how many patients have these restrictions which I wasn’t able to accurately assess or treat in this much detail before! Last week I had an (adult) new patient with 2 episodes of hyperextension injuries to her neck, medically unexplainable stomach pain directly after and a clicky sensation in her cervico-thoracic junction as well. Corrected C1 and occipital compression, and the next couple of days she said she slept better, and had fewer episodes of acute stomach flair-ups. Continuing treatment and we’re seeing how it goes. Good start so far! Going to move on to CT junction/clavicle and see what happens.

    Thank you for a wonderful program! Was extremely insightful and I’m looking forward to implementing more of these techniques on my patients and looking forward to see how we can help them better.

    The program was very comprehensive and interesting take on adjusting

    I took this course specifically to address my patients with vagus nerve impairment which is the most vital and important thing to me as I am my practice.

    I would recommend this course because it has specificities to diagnosis correct and check also love low force.

    This program is full of information which I still need to digest, and I do love the cranial adjusting.
