Praise For: Introduction to Chiropractic Cranial Adjusting (CCA)

I appreciate the notes and the written transcript Doc. The entire system works very efficiently. Well done.

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 took this course as I wanted to further my skills in cranial adjusting so I can better serve my patients, particularly my pediatric patients. I have taken Dr Rosen’s in person seminars before, and although those are very helpful as well, there is so much information and being online you are able to pause and go back and go at your own pace. I have already started using these techniques in my practice and they have been really impactful. Specifically in the babies that I take care of that I have tried everything else and nothing has worked. A 4 month old came to my office and her mom described her as a “mad baby”. She cried constantly and the only time she stopped was when she was feeding. The mom was drained and had gone to every specialist she could and nothing was working. The first thing I noticed when she came in was her obvious cranial distortions. I adjusted her and she did not stop crying. I left the room to grab something quick and by the time I was back in the room, she had stopped crying and looked up and actually smiled at her mom. It was so heartwarming and amazing to see how powerful that kind of adjustment was! I got so much out of this course. I think the only thing I struggled with was trying to visualize hand placements and motions over the computer but after going over everything it became more obvious.

Recently I had the pleasure of taking Peak Potential Institutes online Introduction to Cranial Adjusting class. I had previous experience learning from Drs. Rosen & Watson through the ICPA. There was so much knowledge and experience to be shared it was a little overwhelming. I was a student back then and those weekend seminars felt a lot like drinking water from a fire hose in addition to all the information my brain was already processing. I definitely learned the value of cranial adjusting but I wasn’t able to integrate the technique into my work in clinic and upon graduating I joined an established practice that didn’t use cranial adjusting in their systems. Fast forward to private practice, I began to notice that while I often got great results with my practice members sometimes I’d hit a wall. Either people didn’t get better or they couldn’t hold their adjustment. Cranial adjusting would always come up for me and I was feeling pretty frustrated at the need to refer these cases to a local CST for resolution. So, I began to seriously revisit the idea of learning this powerful work when I saw this course. To be honest, I was a little unsure about how effective taking a technique class online would be. I’m so glad I set those concerns aside though because let me tell you; unlike those weekend seminars I had a front row seat. The videos were at once informative but short and to the point making them easy to assimilate. They were not rushed and were organized in a very effective and easy to understand manner. I replayed many of them which you can’t do live and I even had the option to slow the speed of the video if I needed extra time to absorb what was being said. The videos were supplemented with transcripts, excellent notes, homework to help integrate the skills, multiple opportunities to connect via zoom and ask questions and an active Facebook community from which I learned a lot by others questions. At the end of this course I am equipped with several techniques and parameters for when to use them that have already improved my clinical outcomes. If you are considering taking this course I cannot recommend it highly enough. It’s well worth the investment in yourself and your practice members. I’m looking forward to diving deeper into the topic with further modules as time goes on.

I took this course to increase my knowledge of cranial work. It will take time and repetition to comprehend the information. I now feel like I will have a greater impact on your lives. Thank you.
