    “I decided to take this program because in 2020 I had an infant come into my office with severe plagiocephaly. It was severe to the point that I knew this was outside of my training. I referred them somewhere else and began the process to ensure that won’t happen again.

    Having taken this program, it has increased our confidence in caring for peds and ensured a repeat of the situation in 2020 will not happen again. I recently used what I have termed ‘booger shaker’ on a 4 year old with an ear infection. She had been adjusted twice and it hadn’t resolved in a week. The visit after the booger hadn’t resolved over a week. The visit after the booger shaker mom informed us she was doing much better and not complaining about her.”

    “I took this program to learn about treating pediatrics and to have a better understanding of SOT®/cranial techniques.

    This is a very comprehensive program that covers everything from techniques to conditions and using techniques for different conditions. The material learned helps a lot in everyday practice/cases and the notes are also very helpful because you have them to refer back to. You learn how and when to apply/use techniques learned in the course when you come across certain patients. Currently in my first year of practice as an SOT® doctor, this program has helped a lot when treating cases I didn’t know how to start or resolve. This course has helped a lot with treatment of conditions in children (and adult) that I had a hard time figuring out what to do. It’s taught me a lot of useful techniques that I’ve either forgotten and/or need a refresher on.

    Currently I have quite a lot of kids coming from a pediatric dentists that have class II or class III that are severe. They’ve all been able to start coming out of their class II or III and just need a bit of bite fixing because of their growth of the maxilla or mandible.

    There was one kid that was a severe class II and it didn’t matter what the dentist did, either using elastics or expander, he would not go forward in the upper palate and his mandible was also stuck. After working with him for 8 visits, he had almost no anterior head carriage. He finally started expanding forward. Afterwards, because he was 12 years old, they put in an expander in for two weeks to help and he had so much expansion in two weeks that they didn’t need to keep it in any longer. He also stopped tripping over himself in soccer practice and can run without hip pain.”
