    “I wanted to learn more about cranial adjusting and this course exceeded my expectations.

    I would recommend this course to any chiropractor. I have expanded my knowledge of the SOT technique, the pediatric spinal exam and adjustment, and cranial adjusting. I have been able to put this into practice immediately and I am pleased with the results.

    I have been able to look at a person with a new perspective and system of analysis. It has helped me with new knowledge and new adjustments. That always improves my life and the lives of my patients.

    I have been wanting to learn the sphenobasilar junction adjustments, which is why I signed up for this course. A couple of months after starting this course, a mom brought her 7 month old in for care, concerned his anterior fontanelle was too small. He was extremely subluxated in the upper cervical spine and cranium. After clearing his upper cervical spine, I adjusted his sphenobasilar junction, and when he came back for a follow up visit, his head shape was noticeably different, and his mother was extremely happy.

    I have recommended this course to multiple others. I tell them they will learn more in this class than any other class they have taken.

    There is so much information to learn from this course. Dr. Rosen has it designed in a way to make it as easy as possible. You can watch a video and put it into practice the same week. The weekly videos make it easier to learn than trying to cram it all in a weekend course. I highly recommend it!

    Thank you both so much!”

    “I decided to take this course to gain a better understanding of cranial adjusting for children & to gain more confidence in helping families.

    My three takeaways:

    It’s a lot of work! You will only gain knowledge if you put the modules into practice.
    Although it’s not a symptom-based model, there are specific areas to check the infant/child for specific issues that may have brought them into chiropractic.
    This is just the beginning of learning – this work requires a constant focus & desire to learn more to help children.

    This course has given me more certainty to share with families.

    I am also an IBCLC so I used this course a lot in helping breastfeeding moms who were having trouble latching their newborns. I utilized several of the cranial techniques to help babies relax more to breastfeed & become more efficient feeding.

    YES, I would recommend this program. Even though I have been in practice for nearly 25 years there is always something more to learn to help others.

    This course is definitely a lot of work but it pays off in the end to see the differences in patients, especially children. The parents who have brought their children in since doing this course are super happy & can see I have a lot of certainty & confidence in what I am doing.

    This has been such an invaluable learning experience. Thank you!!”

    Three great takeaways from this course: 1. Clearer, More Structured Paediatric Assessment Framework 2. An excellent system for evaluating infants and children through: refined cranial, spinal, and dural tension assessment 3. A great understanding of segmental motion, tone, and developmental movement patterns.

    This course has greatly enhanced my skills and confidence in assessing and treating infants. I now have a clearer framework for identifying tension patterns and applying gentle, effective techniques. Personally, it has fueled the “why” in terms of my passion for paediatric care.

    During a follow-up with a 3-month-old infant presenting with frequent arching, irritability, and mild feeding difficulties (often associated with reflux-related tension). The palate arch was very narrow which caused latching issues. I applied a gentle occipital cranial release as taught in the SOT course to balancing cranial motion. Also did a Sphenoid Flexion Release via Pterygoid Contact Outcome: Within a few sessions, the infant was noticeably calmer neck and head posture improved tolerance of feeding positions, reduced arching and easier settling for sleep Parents reported the baby was more comfortable and content, and feeding sessions were smoother, less arching noted and generally the family was all round so relieved.

    Yes, it is a great way to learn new adjustment skills, up-skill and improve pediatric care for the community. Improves networking with other health care professionals.

    “I took this course originally to help my own kids because I knew there were things I was missing to help them better, now I can help even more kids!

    My three takeaways:
    1. Confidence in assessing children and babies.
    2. Confidence in understanding how to explain things better to parents
    3. A renewal in philosophy.

    This program has improved my confidence even after being in practice for 10 years my confidence wasn’t that high.
    The biggest change was in my daughter’s face, I worked on all areas of her skull and my family started commenting on the change in the shape of her face. Every time I do a big cranial session she sleeps soooooo well!

    I would absolutely recommend this course to others, the amount of information and access to you guys is incredible (even if we don’t utilize it as much as we should) Hands down the best cranial/assessment approach for kids/babies to boost confidence and knowledge.
    I appreciate the time and effort you put into creating this course!

    Sliding in and getting finished just in time; I LOVED the content in this course. Overwhelming at times but that’s my own fault for not being consistent like I was advised to be. The amount of information that I have already been able to apply in my practice is amazing. I will be reviewing the information to continue to grow and utilize in my practice for the rest of my practice career. Thank you for putting this course together!”

    “I decided to take this program again to improve clinical skills and serve the members of my practice. I have a better understanding of the dural meningeal system and improved competency in my pediatric cranial adjusting. I am better able to care for children, especially involved cranial cases. With a child with plagiocephaly and developmental delays, I was able to completely assess, plan and adjust.

    Great course, I will take it again and again and again.”
