“This program is well organized with good instruction on technique and contacts.
I feel more confident in my ability to help infants and adults with cranial work.
I have not seen an infant with tongue tie; however, I was able to help an 8 year-old boy who had a distortion pattern and was having trouble in school.
I always learn something I can add to my practice, thank you.”

“My takeaways from taking this program are: Cranial work is very specific, having a model on hand while watching was a great help. It takes very little pressure to make corrections on the cranium. Knowing how the sphenobasilar junction can silicate and feeling the distortions on the greater wing of the sphenoid was key for me.
I now know a little more. I wish I could watch this 15 times on now how to continue to palpate my patients and look for submitted cranial bones.
I have a little one who was having issues nursing; he did have issues with only one breast and was fine in the other. It ended up he had a sphenobasilar torsion subluxation that I identified and corrected. Now nursing perfectly on both sides. Mom is thrilled.”

“My three takeaways from this program are:
1. In depth overview regarding anatomy of the cranium especially the palate.
2. Detailed descriptions of assessment of palate and suture motion/restrictions.
3. Overview of corrections for restrictions of sutures and palate.Very in-depth course on the assessment and corrections of the palate. I treat and assess the palate multiple times a day and will be using these techniques to continue to help my patients.
I treat newborns and infants with tongue ties multiple times a day and have always worked on the palate to help with function and symptoms. I have already started using some of these techniques (specifically the assessment and correction of the sphenobasilar junction) to help with high and narrow palates.
This is a great program. I would love an overview at the end of what an exam/treatment would look like. There were many assessments and corrections discussed but it was unclear how they all fit together within a single exam/visit.”

I loved the structural explanations of the cranial. It really had me visualizing how everything is connected. I was surprised to learn that the narrower or flat the nasal passages the more difficult the drainage is. It makes sense. I always just thought of the palate pushing up. I really liked how we move our heads to breath and how important it is for the cranial to structurally be aligned for that.
I am able to explain to clients how things are connected and how important having the cranial aligned not only for breathing, but also for the CSF to flow in order to help keep up healthy physically and immune wise too. It makes sense that everything goes from the cranial to the tailbone. if that is not open or there is some type of obstruction how it can impact a growing child.
I will be advising clients to see chiropractors more often and not just for breast-feeding challenges.
Yes I would recommend this course. I think more people in my profession could use a class on how everything in the cranium is connected and if one structure is off how it can toss everything off. I do not think the majority of my industry understands the importance of functional and structural alignment and how it affects growth and development for their entire lives.
I think it was great.

“The classes and lives are very complete and super educational; learning from this couple is pleasurable and addictive.
Tongue-tie is increasingly ‘common’ to be evaluated in hospitals in Brazil; unfortunately, many babies have their tongues cut, because doctors and healthcare professionals are unaware of how the skull can influence this. It’s so good to be able to educate my pregnant patients that this problem shouldn’t be solved like this, before I can evaluate and try to help and I’m so happy to see them bringing their babies and trusting in my work, without you, I would never have known about this much less would I have the confidence to call this responsibility upon myself. You transform the lives of my patients through your teachings, so THANK YOU so much for everything!
One of the cases that marked me the most was a 2-month-old baby who lives in another state, and who had her tongue stuck, but even after the operation, she continued to hurt her breast when breastfeeding, a very tight latch and the nipple clicking. Tongue, after I adjusted it, using what I learned in classes, she breastfed softly and without any clicking, the mother cried, hugged me, apologized to her baby saying ‘forgive me for putting you through that, I knew that Auntie Lili was his solution.’
I can say that I’m this couple’s number one fan. Learning from them is fascinating and I recommend all the courses to anyone who wants practice focused on real health. Using what they teach transforms lives!”
