Praise For: SOT® – The Three Categories

I learned about the foundation of the Sacro-Occipital Technique. I also learned the treatment protocol of those categories that really help me to treat patients.

It gave me a direction for treating patients, I understand the foundation of SOT made me want to learn more about SOT such as the TMJ and Cranial part.

I am in the student clinic right now. One of my patients had an injury of the SI joint for a while during an Aikido session. Came in with a complaint of SI joint. I used SOT Category II protocol to treat her. Her pain immediately disappeared in the first session of treatment, which is amazing.

Yes, it is a detailed course that talks about the history, physiology, anatomy and treatment method of SOT. I will definitely recommend this to my classmate that want to learn SOT.

“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 took this course to improve my skill and learn new techniques.

My takeaways are that one complaint can hide something that has been there for longer than the complaint. The importance of considering the body as a whole and the strong relationship between the cervical and the pelvis.

The course has enlarged my view on chiropractic care, and taught me a new way to approach a complaint.

Great class.”

“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!”

A clearer picture of the indicators and corrections of each of the three categories as well as a meter grasp of the neurology associated with the Category system.

I have been able to apply it directly on a daily basis, understanding better the dollar and crest sign in the Category I correction on a specific patient I have been working on.

I have been working with a patient for a considerable amount of time, starting with a dural approach, then Category II indicators and this week, moving to Category I correction. Still waiting to see if this improves her symptomatology, although each correction has cleared the indicators.

I would recommend this course. The ability to study SOT from a master without all the ridiculous politics is refreshing!

Thank you for this course. I know that I have been slow getting through all of the material, but I have been cherry-picking the info that I have needed in the moment before sitting down to complete the course and it has still been a rewarding course and will continue to be a reference point in the future for my patients!
