“Such an easy book to read and understand as a provider or patient! Provides parents the ability to understand how ‘common’ is not ‘normal’ and how those common changes can affect the body globally.”

"It's All In The Head"
“This book is a fantastic tool for any pediatric chiropractor. I love that this book can explain in easy terms a very complex issue. Having this is the office has helped increase retention and decrease parental questions.”
Cecelia Mikles, D.C.
Dr. Jennifer Howard
Drs. Martin and Watson have compiled an amazing book valuable for any parent and anyone who gives health care to children. It is clear, concise, full of useful information, and an enjoyable read. Further it has excellent illustrations. I have practiced chiropractic for over 40 years with an emphasis on craniopathy and found this book to be an excellent resource. I recommend this book to any parent or health care worker who works with children.
Dr. James Peck
I love, love, love the way Dr Rosen and Dr Watson lay out, in a very digestible and concise way, the intricacies of the nervous system and it's important relationship with the meninges. They question what we've come to believe as "normal" signs, challenge such belief, and offer the best approach for optimal child development. It is a book that every family chiropractor must have and should make available to all their chiropractic patients.
Dr. Michael Eberle
Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson have co-authored an excellent book introducing the lay person to a wealth of valuable and immediately useful information. Their combined skills lay out the groundwork not only for the layperson to explore, but I was impressed to read and re-read the book and to be encouraged to continue my learning of this pediatric cranial SOT protocol.
This book is a must have for every parent. The way the information is broken down is so easy for everyone to understand. The importance of proper development is imperative to the success of every child and this book helps to ensure you are on the right track and how to help if you're not. I can't recommend this book enough!
This book has been our number one resource for parents and providers. This book explains the depth of what we do as simply as possible without shrinking or minimizing the work.
Martin Rosen, in the community of chiropractic pediatric and family practitioners, is considered a real treasure. This book offers insight after insight from his decades of study, teaching, and clinical practice. The book is clearly a winning combination of his knowledge and wisdom.

“Drs Rosen brings insight and education that expands awareness and shifts perspectives. I’m grateful for their brilliant work!”
Dr. Lisa Engle
This book is easy to read, filled with appropriate facts. It is filled with easy to read vocabulary professional insights. It is a great resource for parents or early childhood libraries. I have been an eec professional for 15 years and am so encouraged by Marty and Nancy’s information. I highly recommend reading and sharing this book for all who are involved with children 0 to 5 years of age.
Laura Coulter
“I love the chart with how it is worded to show that Untied States is as low as 26th on the list for infant mortality. People need to recognize this and become more educated about the process of birth. Natural Birth in this country has taken a back seat to the C-sections and medicalization of birth. A woman’s birth story is her personal story for life. I loved the chapter on the “Wonder of Human Development”, it would be great to teach that in a high school health class.”
Dr. Mary Connors
When so much happens in the first two years, it's great to have a source with the breakdown of these two years. This information is needed more and more.
Dr. Jennifer Hulbert 
I learned so much reading this amazing book. Thank you for the work that you do!
Mila
This book was so easy to understand and well written! It helped to clarify a lot of developmental processes that my baby is going through! I would give "10 stars" if this review would let me!
Courtney Brooks
Such an important book for any parent to better understand their child's developmental process with practical tips and tools to use immediately.
Emily
Distills decades of experience as an educator of fellow chiropractors and provides new parents with vital information about their babies development.

“This book is an invaluable resource for caregivers of babies and children. Drs. Nancy and Marty are so skilled at simplifying the underlying physiology behind the detailed cranial imbalances described. Also, there are many inspiring case studies thoughtfully interwoven throughout the book which provides meaning and adds depth to concepts relayed. This is also a perfect resource for healthcare providers who are new to assessing cranial distortion patterns and are interested in furthering their knowledge of the resulting ramifications. Highly recommend this read! I will be singing its praises to everyone.”
Dr. Kristen Favreau
“This is an amazing book for all parents and pediatric practitioners. I highly recommend it!”
Dr. Katherine Roose
“As more and more infants are encountering stress on their nervous system from birth trauma , environmental toxins, and poor diet, to name a few, it is imperative that parents are educated on what normal alignment and function look like. When infant symptoms and health challenges are common and become confused for normal, parents are not alerted to how inaction can create chronic issues that can be easily resolved with early treatment from a pediatric chiropractor/craniopath. It’s All in the Head by Drs. Rosen and Watson presents an easy-to-understand analysis of common infant distortions that may be overlooked by the medical community but are extremely important for parents to feel empowered to get help for their little ones. A must-read for any parent wanting to create the best start for their baby with an optimized nervous system, normal physiological function and milestone development.”
Laura T. Brayton, DC, CSP, CACCP, CSCP
“Parents, doctors, educators…an amazing must read, “It’s All In The Head”, is a parent’s and practitioner’s “go to” reference guide to often overlooked aspects of the growth and development of babies and children. It discusses tools to help children meet all their milestones and alert parents and practitioners to potential neurological and developmental problems and how to resolve these issues. It is written by Dr. Marty Rosen and Dr. Nancy Watson, who are leaders, practitioners and educators in the field of spinal, cranial and neurological development. This is a book for every parent to read before the birth of their newborn and every practitioner to use as a reference guide for their pediatric population.”
Patti Guilano, DC
“It’s All In The Head covers many important checkpoints for a child’s development in the early critical years of life. Anyone seeking help for a non-invasive treatment for their child or grandchild has a clear leg up with this book. Many questions or concerns one might have about a child’s potential can be addressed (for the lay person and professional alike) in It’s All In The Head.”
Fran West
While I could always describe the 'why' my children received chiropractic care (increased speech, regulation, resolution of flat head, colic, no repeat ear infections, tongue-tie, and reflux, to name just a few…) I knew little about the 'how,' 'where,' and 'when.' This easily digestible book is a wonderful gift for new parents, young families, grandparents, and anyone seeking to learn more about the role chiropractic plays in normal vs. common development. While many pediatricians would prescribe medication for reflux, refer to a helmet specialist for flat head, or to a plethora of other specialists when development goes awry, we learn how specific adjustments course correct many children (including my own), and can provide often dramatically improved quality of life for families. Thank you so very much for taking the time to produce a guidebook for this generation, and future generations, who are seeking a new way.
Ashley Griffin Dalidowitz
Awesome and informative! It’s All in the Head is a book everyone should read. Drs. Rosen and Watson share practical, easy to understand explanations as to why everyone with a nervous system should be checked by a chiropractor! I am certain every parent-to-be would have their child checked at birth if they took the time to read this book.
Dr. Marie Miller
This book breaks down a complex topic into pieces the lay-parent can grasp quickly when they know that there is something missing from the examination and care of their child but aren't quite sure what it may be. The ease of reading is a testament to the knowledge of the authors, who know their topic so thoroughly they can explain it simply to those new to the field. It's also a great introduction for chiropractors new to cranial work and pediatric care. Start here!
Pamela
Well written and based on a rich amount of experience. Easy to read and easy to understand and practice. I didn't realize how important the first year of life was. I have multiple friends having children soon and I will recommend this to them to support them!
Luke
This accessible work combines the knowledge of two amazing chiropractors and refines it into a well-researched work of art. I am so excited about this book. It explains important concepts and ideas in understandable ways. It's rare a book that parents will enjoy can also be riveting for professionals, myself included. Read this and some puzzling patterns will make so much more sense.

This is it! This book is the missing link to help all parents understand Chiropractic Cranial work and how valuable it is for the developing child. It is an invaluable tool to help every parent navigate what is and is not normal to help their child achieve their highest potential. I could go on and on but really, just get the book!
Dr. Kathryn
I wish this book was written years ago. I applaud Drs. Rosen and Watson for taking the time to write this book and share their wisdom with the world. Clearing the cranium of distortions can transform a child's life. This book offers insight to both clinicians and parents. Often times we don't know what we don't know. Reading this book will create awareness and understanding what is possible and how to achieve it.
Dr. Peter
When I saw "anatomy & physiology" in the description of this book, I thought that it would be more like a text book. Quite honestly, I was a little intimated and did not know exactly what to expect. I bought it last month anyway because I needed answers to questions that I had regarding my child. Don't let the description intimidate you. This book is very easy to read and understand. I eagerly read the pages and wanted to learn more of how I could help my child have his best life and address the issues he was having. I feel like a better parent for having this knowledge now. Thank you Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson for opening my eyes and helping our family! Every parent needs this information!!!
Nicole
Dr. Martin is an expert In pediatric care in the chiropractic profession. This book highlights the extreme importance of knowing certain patterns early on in children, to be able to eliminate problems in the future. Everyone can understand this book, and I'm so grateful to now have it in my office for patients to read through to be educated as well. Thank you dr. Marty for your contribution to our field in so many ways!
Rachel
Thank you for writing this book. Wish I had this incredible information years ago for the benefit of my own child as well as all the young patients the past 35+ years Great for parents as well as others who deal with babies and children.

“Dr. Martin Rosen and Dr. Nancy Watson have 40 years of experience with craniopathy and SOT chiropractic. They have taught many seminars, and fully love, know and thoroughly share this information. This is a must have book for ANYONE who has children, or is in awe of the human body, and has the desire to learn. They have created a through discussion of “normal” vs. “common”, when it comes to many of the “common” complaints and concerns for parents with their children, as well as some uncommon ones. They engage the parent and caretaker in such a way, that allows a greater concept an understanding of basic anatomy, the nervous system, and the importance of CSF and allowing the dura-meningeal system to be free of restrictions. This gives a greater understanding of “normal” primary respiratory motion and the freedom of the body to be at the optimum level of function, which creates “normal” nerve flow, function and adaptation of the body as a whole.”
Brooke Eckhardt Lee, DC
It’s All in the Head is an incredible, eye opening look at the development of babies and children. Encourage parents as well as practitioners who deal in pediatrics to get this book.
Dr. Michael Weinman
“Thank you Dr. Rosen and Dr. Watson for a wonderful, well written book! This book needs to be in the hands of every parent to help understand common vs normal and the importance of the nervous system when it comes to their child. If you are a parent who wants to “help them do what every parent wants to do with their children, give them the greatest opportunity to express their full potential,” buy this book today!”
Dr. Ashley Peters
“This is a book that in very simple and easy to understand terms, explains the importance of proper brain development for a newborn and all during their growing years. Chiropractors can use the same terminology to explain it to their patients. This book helps explain why a parent would want their baby under chiropractic care.
There are so many key phrases and sentences in this book that chiropractors could use to explain this work to their parents. Chiropractors should read this book to be in able to share the information with their parents.”
