Praise For: Tongue-Tie and Palate Evaluation Procedures

“Having taken this program, my three takeaways are: Better understanding of appropriate adjustments for appropriate situations. Better verbiage to communicate about TOTs. Better understanding of a parent’s point of view.

I have better service to patients and parents, watching kids heal more thoroughly and easily is very helpful! One in particular surprised even her dubious mom with her progress.

Thank you to both of you for creating it. I think it would be even better with discussion of what happens with misdiagnosis when torticollis is not addressed before a posterior tongue tie. More common in our state apparently.”

“My three takeaways from this program:
1. How much the palate affects the facial and cranial bones.
2. How important the sphenoid bone, as a base to all of these movements.
3. How fluid the cranial, facial, and palate bones were (before full fusion) that allows for chiropractic adjustments.

This program has really made me rethink how I adjust and look at my own children; as much as how I think about the babies and toddlers I have the privilege of treating. This has also impacted how much education and knowledge I have when speaking to the parents of these children and the degree of importance of the palate/facial/cranial bone relationships.

As I am actively seeing babies in the office since starting this course, I have already started to use the assessments to locate the decreased movement in more of the cranial sutures that I realized I could.

This course is filled with so much good information! And immediately applicable!”

“My three takeaways from this course are:
1. Information about how the cranium moves on inspiration and expiration that is not taught in chiropractic school (at least when I went).
2. Understanding the palate and being able to release dural tension has been a game changer in practice.
3. Confidence in communicating to parents about the benefits of cranial work

I have taught my associates the information in this course and have been enjoying the benefits myself. Since taking the original cranial immersion course and now this one, I have attracted more difficult cases and special needs kids into the office. This population so needs this type of work and parents are grateful to have found us.

A couple who are chiropractors contacted me when their baby was in the NICU on a ventilator because she was hypoxic. The baby started moving and opening her mouth for the first time after her first adjustment. The parents when they called me were not sure if she was ever going to come home. After 3 times seeing her in the hospital, she was able to come home. The doctors said she could have neurological damage and she is perfectly normal!!”

“I took this program because: 1. The impact of properly evaluating the palate and cranial structures in our young patients 2. How many tongue ties are over-looked today or even surgically operated on without looking to chiropractic first 3. The impact chiropractic can have on the developing baby/child

My daughter was thought to have a tongue tie initially because she didn’t have a great latch. It was determined that she did not have a tongue tie and we needed to work on her strength as well as other structures so I am excited to apply it to my own daughter.

I applied them to my daughter by evaluating her. Her latch has been much better since I started working on her with what I learned in this course.

Love the options for online classes – much easier for me at this stage in my life.”

A thorough review of the cranium and sutures, understandings of cranial restrictions and how tongue ties affect these or cause these restrictions.

It’s allowed me to understand more on the palate and its flexibility, more confidence in speaking and explaining to parents about cranial distortions and tongue ties and confidence to give parents the wait and see approach, while working on freeing the cranial restrictions.

This course has given me new perspectives of the cranial movement and palate effects with cranial restrictions. It’s given me a few more ways to evaluate the infant to know if there are restrictions I wasn’t looking for before, since applying these assessments I’ve found more restrictions than before, cause now I’m looking for them and it’s helped colic babies feel more comfortable and less fussy also has improved nursing challenges for mom and baby, such as less discomfort for mom while nursing and less air getting in for baby which decreases colic/tummy upsets.

I would recommend this course for anyone working on infants as it helps you have a greater understanding of how to help reduce tension of the baby’s head/face/body for a healthy happy baby. I would let them know that if you are a southerner where we talk slower, you may have to watch the videos a few times for it all to sink in, cause he talks fast. But other than that it’s a great course.

This was a great class. Lots of information. You talk fast for my southern brain (I forgot how fast you were; I took your classes when you taught with the ICPA, lol). You are a wealth of knowledge, and I look forward to taking more in the future. Thank You.
