My three takeaways:
Very in-depth cranial adjusting, more confidence in visual analysis, overall more comfortability and confidence working with infants.

This program has helped me serve more babies and families, which has helped to create more ease in families. It has led me down a path of pediatric adjusting that I didn’t know existed and am excited to continue learning

There was a mother whose baby wasn’t breastfeeding at all and she was just about to give up and I used the frontal molding technique, and the baby latched instantly right in front of me and has been breastfeeding ever since.

Yes, I would recommend this program because there is no other course out there that is as in-depth or comprehensive. I wouldn’t refer to or trust my child’s care with someone who hasn’t taken this course

I am super appreciative of the dedication that you have to this work and to the chiropractic profession. I am grateful to have learned from you; I am sad that it’s over but look forward to continuing in the future.

1. The quality of the video and slides to assist the study.
2. Amazing information of pediatric SOT and details into science to help students understand better.
3. Breakdown of the program into sections per week makes it easier to digest

I gained a deeper understanding of SOT that can be readily applied to not just pediatric but all populations of patients. This program provides me solid foundation to continue exploration of SOT

I am still a student. But I am fortunate enough to explore technique on my patient as a Palmer student intern. I had a patient with an unstable upper cervical. After correcting occipital sideslip, the persistent pain went away.”

The importance of every child and baby to get checked by a chiropractor. That chiropractors can treat so much more than just spinal/joint issues. The role and importance of the dural- meningeal system and how it relates to the vitality and health of a patient.

I feel that I can make so much more of a positive change in babies, children and parents’ lives. One really positive story I can share was that I treated a 3-month-old Down syndrome baby whose mom was at the absolute brink of despair as she was pumping full time day and night to provide breastmilk for her baby. She was so close to giving up on the night pumping and supplementing with formula because she was so exhausted from constantly waking up at night. They struggled with breastfeeding from day 1: her baby had low motor tone, poor core strength, breastfeeding was uncoordinated and she tired easily at the breast and most times would just end up rejecting her breast or falling asleep after a few minutes. She was only able to breastfeed with a nipple shield. Often breastfeeding would last 1-2 minutes max, the longest she breastfed for was 5 minutes and that was only very occasionally at night if she caught her baby at the “right” time and it was only on the one breast – i.e..” dream feeding”, but only when she was sleepy enough but not too sleepy, not too hungry otherwise she was just fussy at the breast – there was a very fine line and she only managed to get it right a couple of times). Mom had exclusively breastfed her 2 previous children until age 2, naturally birthed all her babies and was headset on breastfeeding her Down Syndrome baby, at least for the first year (she came into my office, just hoping to get to 6 months but not thinking she would even make that). She sat in my office chair and cried because she was so tired of pumping around the clock and she was about to give up on their exclusive pumping feeds at night, possibly during the day too as it was all just getting too much for her, especially with other children to look after. After 1 chiropractic treatment, her 3-month-old baby was able to latch and effectively breastfeed from both breasts for 10-15minutes on each side. She went from exclusively pumping to exclusively breastfeeding off the breast within 1 week of her first chiropractic treatment and it saved her mom’s sanity! She is now able to breastfeed at night (without a shield) and can go out in public without having to pump and prep a bottle beforehand. She is forever grateful for Chiropractic. This was after seeing Lactation Consultants, craniosacral therapists and physiotherapists. 1 Chiropractic treatment was all it took for them to go from exclusive pumping to exclusive breastfeeding after 3 months of struggling. Powerful stuff!

I used the ear infection protocol on an active ear infection of a 5-year-old little boy who came in crying with acute ear pain and a fever. 2 hours after his chiro treatment, his fever broke and his ear pain went away – in his mom’s words “he went back to his normal self like nothing had happened”.

Yes, of course I would recommend it to others! It is probably the most in-depth and comprehensive chiropractic course I’ve taken – worth every cent! And it’s very interesting to be able to treat the cranial aspect of things.

“I took this course originally to gain more knowledge about cranial work for the pediatric population so that I could help more of these kids. This time I was taking it as a review because it had been a while since I had taken it and I think I always learn something new each time!

You will learn things you can implement immediately in practice. You will learn A LOT! Even if you just implement a couple of things, you will feel more confident in practice.

Personally, I have been able to help my own daughter after taking this course and professionally I have seen more peds and feel more confident and comfortable with this population than before.

I have used it in helping a baby with an internally rotated frontal bone and helping a baby with torticollis.

I would definitely recommend this course to others because there is so much content to help you in practice. Other chiropractors would benefit from studying with you because they would feel so much more comfortable and confident in practice when working with pediatrics because of all the knowledge they will gain from taking this course.

The videos are great tools to be able to see up close and pause and replay to make sure you are performing the techniques correctly!”

The three big takeaways from this program were: 1. Importance of having pediatric training to treat infants, toddlers and kids 2. Importance of cranial work in the first 3 years of life, especially the first year!! 3. How to integrate cranial work with regular adjustments.

This year, I had an emergency C-section as my baby passed meconium when I was 6 cm dilated. This program made to confidant enough to adjust him as soon as I was able to get up and better navigate our NICU stay. Professionally I have started implementing cranial techniques on my pediatric patients and have had great feedback.

I performed the C-section technique on my newborn when he was in NICU, and he responded great. His spinal Galant reflex was absent and after performing the C-section technique and doing Logan basic to adjust his sacrum, his reflex arrived. It was quite magical, and the NICU nurses were impressed.

I would absolutely recommend this course, as it will help enhance any pediatric practice.

This was an absolutely amazing course. Though I learn better with hands-on learning, I felt that I still learned a lot via this course. Would love to learn in-person from you in the future.
