    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.

  • Norri J. Collier, DC

    “I wanted to fine tune my skills with the categories and organize my procedures more in line with SOT.

    My three takeaways:
    1. Good organization of the indicators with each category
    2. Understanding of the difference in each category relating to the adjusting procedures
    3. Great refresher and reminder of all that SOT can cover.

    I feel more confident with my SOT procedures and continue to witness the miracle of the body and Chiropractic. In particular I have a better understanding of the R+C procedure and have made significant progress with eliminating those indicators.

    I appreciate your teaching style, especially with the online program. I like the bite sized pieces of information that I can take back to the clinic and work into my procedures.”

  • Norri Collier, DC

    “I enjoy the bite size lessons. It’s enough information to work into practice and review as many times as I like. The lessons are concise. Incorporating additional technique in daily practice allows me to address more difficult cases and to the patient the treatment is magical.

    I believe learning more shows me to be a better practitioner and that yields many good things.

    I have adopted the R+C technique and found it to be highly effective and easy in my body.

    I would recommend this course because it gives you tools to be a more effective and happy healer.

    I appreciate their wealth of knowledge and the way they teach. They are detailed, concerned that you get it, and willing to offer help without judgements.”

    1. This course teaches how to approach an occipital fiber line 3, which was missing from the in-person series. 2. Dural tension is something all chiropractors need to understand as research comes out saying “segmental specificity doesn’t matter” 3. Cranial techniques won’t be as effective if pelvic torsion and spinal compensations are not addressed/alleviated first.

    I took this course in conjunction with the live SOT certification series taught by Dr. Blum. This SOT system gives me a lot of excitement about treating patients. I’ve been getting better, lasting results for my patients, and am able to work smarter instead of harder. It helps me feel surer that I’ll be able to help people even as I get older without the risk of injury.

    I have a 6″7, 300lb patient who I always worked up a sweat trying to help with his hip, knee, foot and occasional neck issues. Ever since using the Category II approach in the proper sequence, he has felt the best he has ever felt, and I’m using half the physical effort to achieve that.

    I’d highly recommend this course. It’s too important of a technique to only be taught once per year in one location. Your course makes it convenient, accessible, and is paced appropriately.

    This was great for me. I am happy I took this course, giving me a steady drip of content to learn and homework to fill up the weeks in between my 4 weekend trips out to California to practice hands-on. I think it could be great for you and Dr. Blum offers a package deal so people taking the course can experience the same experience I had.

    I have a better understanding of the vertebral subluxation complex and the body’s compensation reactions to subluxations. Following the indicators has improved treatment protocols for the patient. Learning about the categories has helped me take a different approach to the care of my patients.

    Over the last few years, I have been dealing with Parkinson’s Disease. The symptoms have become worse and have affected my adjustments. I needed a more reliable way to treat patients. SOT is becoming that avenue for me.

    Once I started blocking patients, I started seeing more positive results almost immediately. I also have been explaining the categories and the indicators to the patients. They seem to grasp the concepts quickly and are appreciative for a more detailed explanation beyond “You have a bone out of place”.

    I would recommend this course. The organization of the indicators, categories, and treatment protocols help get better results in a gentler way.

    Thanks to both of you for helping me find a way to stay in practice a little bit longer.
