“I took SOT Europe’s first three modules at the beginning of the year (Cat I, II, II and extremities). Lots of questions arose as I started using SOT with patients.
The program was well structured, ensuring that participants can comfortably absorb, comprehend, and put into practice the concepts taught. This program answered so many questions, I’m so grateful for having taken part in this course. I am feeling more confident using SOT. In the clinic, patients with chronic complaints have finally started to heal.
I have been treating a patient for about 2 years. She presented with left buttock pain. I had gone far further than previous chiropractors in helping her. However, her pain remained. It was only when I started using SOT and identified a Category II subluxation pattern that I was able to clear her pain completely and get her back to running and practicing martial arts. She is still a stable category 1 patient now and I see her for maintenance every four weeks.
Thank you for answering all my questions. I am looking forward to the CMRT course. You always made me feel welcome with my many questions, and I really appreciate your help and kindness.”

I have done the SOT seminars here in Australia twice and found them great to understand the basics. What this program has done has given me a much deeper understanding of the underlying mechanisms and how to link it all from my diagnostics all the way through to scheduling and patient education. I have already seen breakthroughs with patients who had previously stagnated which is amazing.
It has helped me better understand my body and the way it has compensated since a young age which has made a lot of things click. It has also helped me in practice significantly with how I now analyse and treat my patients
I have a friend who 12 months ago had an unstable grade 2 L5 spondy surgically stabilised and then a disc replacement of L4. He had been getting consistent hip/ pelvis issues holding his recovery back and we had been blocking him as a Category II but it kept coming back. Since doing this course I have now been able to stabilise the Category II and transition him to a Category I and he is seeing significant improvement with his pelvic stability allowing him to step up his rehab in a big way.
This course is great and really helps to put all the pieces together to properly integrate SOT into a clinical setting
Thank you for putting this course together, it has been an amazing program, and I will continue to recommend it to other colleagues.

The concept is that the cervical and lumbar spine are interconnected, so rather than treating only the affected area, it is essential to also address other spinal regions that could be the root cause of the issue.
I now perform more detailed examinations when seeing patients, making it easier to explain their condition to them. Additionally, I’ve become more mindful of taking care of my own body as well.
After providing more detailed adjustments to the temporomandibular joint and upper cervical spine for a headache patient, they were satisfied, saying their vision improved and their headaches got better.
As a neurologist practicing chiropractic in Korea, I found the SOT classes to be incredibly valuable.

“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.”

This was a great introduction to SOT, I have gained foundational knowledge to start using this technique. I’m excited to begin using the information learned to help patients in a different way. I like the systematic approach, and am excited to master what I’ve learned and then take another class.
It has given me a more strategic way to assess and adjust.
Yes, I would recommend this class. The course is well organized, with a good amount of information presented each week.
I really enjoyed this course.
