Praise For: Introduction to Chiropractic Cranial Adjusting (CCA)

I enjoyed relearning about the importance of CSF fluid and how it moves. It is helpful to explain to practice members why having cranial work done is important to their overall health. I have noticed more and more of the practice members having cranial problems and how profound the work can be in their overall health and there is always something you can learn and be better at. It was a nice easy pace to keep up with each week and even if you fell behind, you could easily catch up. That was great for someone that does not have much extra time but wants to learn. The videos were very helpful for me to learn since I am a visual person. It is important to have someone help so you can practice on them otherwise it is harder to apply the information and techniques. Overall, the course was great and I would take another in the future.

My wife and I had our first child and wanted to provide comprehensive chiropractic care for her that included cranial adjustments. We were able to care for our child in ways that we weren’t otherwise able to. My favorite aspect of the course was learning not only generalized cranial adjustments, but adjustments that are specific for certain conditions as well.

My biggest takeaway was the many ways a person can respond to a cranial adjustment and the cranial antidote for when they are not accepting the adjustments. I plan to utilize the CRI technique and RTRT to help all practice members have more balance in the dural meningeal system, better CSF flow and better reception to adjustments. I will also utilize the skull molding for pediatric practice members and evaluate for protrusions on newborns/infants when they first come in.

I would recommend this course to others. It is an excellent refresher on anatomy and physiology, explains when and why to perform cranial corrections and is highly specific in the art of performing them! This course has given me the confidence and knowledge that I need in cranial adjustments. The cranium and dural meningeal system are so intimately related to the nervous system and how it functions. I feel as though I am better equipped for individuals in a more comprehensive way!

Dr. Rosen is the SOT master and I love learning from him whenever I can. I got a fundamental intro to cranial adjusting which I desperately needed. Dr. Rosen’s like the Obi Wan of SOT, if you have an opportunity to learn from him, you must. You will not get this information or knowledge anywhere else.

Take this Intro to Cranial Course before the Cranial Immersion or the Pediatric Class. If I had taken this first, it would’ve made the pediatric course easier since some of the concepts were repeated in both courses. Practice, practice, practice. The more patients I worked with, the easier these techniques became and the more sensitive my fingers were to the CSF pulses. Trust the technique. Even when I wasn’t sure if I did something right, I would hear great feedback from patients and see changes even if I was using a new technique that I wasn’t 100% comfortable with yet. I finish each adjustment now with some cranial balancing and patients LOVE it. I know I am offering something no other DC in the area can do. I had a patient with swollen glands on her left side and severe ear pain and congestion come to me, and by working on her with these techniques, she had instant relief of her symptoms and her lymph nodes were back to normal by the next day.

I treat a lot of children and a fair amount of them need a lighter input than CMT and benefit greatly from tonal work. This course refreshed my memory and gave me a lot of practical application to current issues I have in my office. My favorite aspect was being able to do it from home on my own time. This course was a great review of the cranium and CSF with a lot of practical application in techniques and protocols.
