    This course was a great breakdown of the meaning, evaluation, and protocols for each category. It was very clear and well presented.

    I now have a better understanding of what my Category III patients are going through… Up until this point I really focused more on learning Category I because of the pediatric protocols I learned through you, as well as Category II because that’s what chronically I am.

    I’ve recently had a few acute pain situations where I have been able to use the blocking protocols to help alleviate their pain and get them feeling better faster.

    This course really helps to build confidence in knowing that you are making a difference because of understanding how the indicators work and how things clear or don’t clear if you are making the correct adjusting protocols.

    “I took this program because I was hoping to truly unlock the basics of SOT and understand the 3 differentiating categories. I wanted to include it and slowly start incorporating blocks into my practice.

    My three takeaways are:
    1. Each category has been clearly explained and the tests shown
    2. SOT does require a lot of testing but it does not need to take long to do it
    3. The importance of the testing in your diagnosis

    This course has helped broaden my scope to be a better chiropractor for my patients.

    I have especially used category three as I have a lot of acute patients that visit me-I have seen a massive change in approaching them more specifically, with correct block position and by using the basic cranial move. Very happy to understand this category to help speed up healing.

    Thank you for giving me some extra time to work through all the videos. I have made plenty of notes to go through and revisit as I go along. Thanks for your brilliant knowledge and exceptional expertise in this field.”

    “I am looking for new ways to help patients with chronic issues that keep recurring and want to incorporate blocking as a more gentle technique approach.

    My three takeaways are:
    1. Identify ascending/descending patterns in order to address the prominent issue first.
    2. Check for and remove atlas/axis dural restrictions.
    3. Awareness of positive muscle control and the idea that not every ‘fixed’ joint should be adjusted as some are compensations for a hypermobility problem.

    Professionally I feel I can help my patients further and explain better why they have the issues they have and how the healing process will be. I have noticed an impact of removing atlas dural restrictions in several patients. It’s been very interesting to observe the changes patients report. The CCC also is a good educational tool as patients notice that raising the legs becomes easier or more difficult with cervical compression.

    It’s the best seminar I’ve ever taken! So much information that I’m a bit overwhelmed but I learned so much that I’ve been able to immediately start using it in practice. Dr. Rosen was amazing in his explanations and I now understand SOT so much better!”

    “I decided to take this course as I have recently returned to practice after a big break and wanted to give myself some more structure and work in a way that involved indicators.

    The program gives a good base of knowledge for SOT categories, it is helpful if feeling a little lost in practice as gives clear indicators to work with, and I like that the content could be worked through in my own time

    This program has given me motivation to improve my processes and procedures in clinic, as well as motivation to really start to understand and implement SOT.

    I used the seated lumbar adjustment on someone in a lot of pain, difficulty getting on table and it worked really well. I feel like I need a few more weeks to integrate and take the time to make sure my exam procedures and forms are in good enough shape to start using with patients.

    Thank you both very much for taking the time to create the course, it was very helpful/insightful and I really like that you made yourselves available for Q+A. As someone who is fairly new to SOT I did find the second half of the course had quite a lot of information, compared to the first half which I easily kept on top of. I also found it a little challenging to follow along in the workbook as it didn’t always follow the order you spoke about in the videos etc. I can’t wait to start implementing more of this in practice and will continue to study and improve my skills. Thank you.”

    I learnt that SOT can be gentle and neurological based.

    It changed how I see the body as an interconnected system.

    I applied some of the techniques in my clinical year of practice and patients have provided great feedback!

    Yes, I would recommend this course.
