Praise For: SOT® – The Three Categories

“I know there is power in the SOT treatment protocols. I am getting older and am using a more gentle technique these days.

My three takeaways are:
1. The program is very detailed and goes into extensive explanation.
2. Presented in an easy-to-understand method.
3. Applicable the very first day.

I have enjoyed learning this program and it is easier on the doctor and the patient. The patients are very curious and excited to have different styles of examination and treatment.

I love checking the trap fibers and making spinal corrections. The patients are very surprised and confident in the treatment

Using SOT is enhancing my practice and drawing a more appreciative and committed patient base.”

SOT provides a deeper look into the functioning of the nervous system and the role of the dural meningeal system in nervous system functioning, chronic patterns, and clues that the source of dysfunction may not be local to the area of pain but may be a compensation above or below. SOT provides an extra key to unlocking the nervous system with the cranial distortion evaluation and how it plays a part in the dural meningeal system, CSF flow and more. The SOT evaluation helps to give better understanding of the capacity to which a person’s nervous system is functioning beyond the everyday ortho and neurological exams taught in school. It is more of a qualitative nervous system analysis rather than a specific diagnostic problem because the nervous system functions as a whole.

I have been able to provide a unique/different technique in my area that is starting to give some results with patients so hopefully will attract more in the future.

This technique has been able to keep me from over adjusting my patients and learning to trust the indicators rather than what I may be feeling without the use of the indicators. For one patient the indicators encouraged me to adjust the cervicals differently which has helped. For another patient having lots of neck pain and not making progress with another provider I was able to determine it was an ascending pattern and the problem was more in his pelvis and sacrum and releasing the AI sacrum was providing the most relief.

Yes, I would recommend this course. I think it helps to have more tools in the toolbox for when you become “stuck” with patient progress and learning to read the body’s indicators helps to provide direction to help them. Also, the role the dural meningeal system plays in nervous system health is not taught in schools so I think it could provide better and more lasting results if the system is unwound.

Like always excellent knowledge of Dr. Rosen and way of sharing his experience.

How has taking this program impacted my life, personally and professionally?: Only in good way. Still craving for more.

When I had a really messy patient with different leg length discrepancy and I checked his atlas and did Category II complex, he improved dramatically. This is really helpful stuff.

Yes, I would recommend it and I already have.

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.

“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!”
