Cranial work is not an add-on technique. It is a discipline that requires precision, anatomical clarity, and a deep understanding of neurological organization.

The Chiropractic Cranial Immersion Program is designed for chiropractors who want to move beyond memorized contacts and truly understand what they are evaluating and influencing in the cranial system.

This program focuses on cranial bone relationships, sutural dynamics, dural tension patterns, and their impact on neurological function in both pediatric and adult patients.

Through structured instruction and clinical application, you will learn how to:
* Perform meaningful cranial evaluations using objective indicators
* Understand cranial motion and restriction patterns within a neurological framework
* Apply specific, low-force cranial adjustments with confidence
* Integrate cranial work seamlessly into SOT-based and neurologically focused practices

If you are serious about elevating your cranial skills and delivering more precise, neurologically informed care, this program provides the foundation and depth required to do so.

This is cranial work taught as a system, not a collection of techniques.

Day 1 in South Africa is complete, a full 12 hours devoted to Pediatric Examination and Pediatric Spinal Adjusting. We are grateful for the focus, curiosity, and attentiveness of the chiropractors who spent the day learning alongside us.

We’re looking forward to diving into Specific Pediatric Cranial Techniques tomorrow as we continue this hands-on intensive together.

When working with the sphenoid, it is essential to remember that we are not just contacting a bone. We are influencing a suture.

In this example, the focus is the sphenomaxillary suture. Even though it is often spoken about in relation to the sphenoid, the clinical effect comes from addressing the relationship between the sphenoid and the maxilla. When you open this contact, you are influencing sutural motion, dural tension, and neurological input, not forcing structural change.

For pediatric patients especially, understanding sutural anatomy changes everything. Gentle, specific contacts at the sphenomaxillary suture can have far-reaching effects on cranial balance, sensory input, and neurological organization. This is why precision, not force, is critical in cranial work.

Pain in pediatric patients is rarely just a local or mechanical issue. It is most often a neurological expression of how the developing nervous system is adapting, compensating, and responding to stress.

Neurological Pain Management in the Pediatric Patient is designed to help chiropractors move beyond symptom-based care and develop a clear, clinically grounded approach to evaluating and addressing pediatric pain through a neurological lens. This course emphasizes how pain patterns reflect nervous system organization, sensory-motor integration, and underlying subluxation patterns specific to children.

You will learn how to:
* Evaluate pediatric pain using neurological indicators, not guesswork
* Recognize age-specific pain patterns and their developmental implications
* Apply gentle, specific adjusting strategies that support neurological regulation
* Integrate cranial and spinal assessment into pediatric pain management protocols

If you want greater confidence in working with infants and children who present with pain, irritability, or unresolved patterns, this course provides the clinical framework to do so with precision and purpose.

Advance your pediatric evaluations. Refine your adjusting strategies. Support neurological development where it matters most.

Why did that baby’s flat head improve without a helmet?

Because babies are designed to grow, adapt, and self-correct. As movement, posture, and nervous system balance improve, pressure on the skull can change — allowing the head to remodel naturally.

Pediatric chiropractic supports this process by gently restoring motion and reducing restriction, so the body can do what it was created to do.

Understanding cranial bone movement is foundational to understanding neurological development.

Cranial bones are designed to move in a coordinated, rhythmic manner. This motion supports respiration, dural tension, cranial nerve function, and overall nervous system organization. When normal movement is restricted or altered, compensatory patterns can develop that influence structure, function, and adaptability throughout childhood and beyond.

Understanding Cranial Bone Movement explores how and why cranial bones move, how to observe and evaluate that motion, and what altered patterns may indicate about neurological stress and development. The course builds a clear framework for recognizing normal versus dysfunctional cranial motion and understanding its clinical significance.

This program is appropriate for chiropractors, healthcare providers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of cranial development and neurological function.

The pediatric skull is not a rigid structure.
With every breath, there is a subtle expansion and contraction that reflects normal cranial motion and healthy neurological input.

This movement is dependent on sutures and fontanels forming, growing, and closing in an organized and timely manner. When these structures are restricted, delayed, or asymmetrical, the impact is not just structural. It can influence respiration, cranial nerve function, autonomic balance, and overall neurological development.

For chiropractors working with infants and children, understanding cranial growth patterns and evaluating motion is not optional. It is a critical part of assessing how well the nervous system is adapting and organizing in the earliest stages of life.

If you are serious about pediatric care, your evaluation must go beyond symptoms and into how the skull, spine, and nervous system are developing together.

Enrollment Closing Soon.
If you work with infants, children, or complex neurodevelopmental cases, understanding primitive reflexes is not optional. It is foundational.

Registration for The Role of Primitive Reflexes in Neurological Development is closing, and this course addresses a gap many chiropractors recognize in practice but were never fully trained to evaluate.

Primitive reflexes are not simply developmental checklists. They reflect the organization and integration of the brainstem, midbrain, and higher cortical centers. When these reflexes remain active, they often present clinically as sensory dysregulation, poor motor coordination, emotional reactivity, learning challenges, chronic tension patterns, and recurring or resistant subluxation patterns.

This program goes beyond surface-level screening. You will learn how to assess reflex integration clinically and how to apply chiropractic care that supports neurological maturation rather than symptom management.

If you are ready to elevate how you analyze, adjust, and support developing nervous systems, this course provides the clinical clarity many chiropractors have been searching for.

Register before enrollment closes.

When evaluating occipital fiber involvement, precision matters more than chasing the pain pattern.
In clinical practice, it is not about perfectly identifying every fiber. The priority is the neurological response. When the patient places their hand on the point of pain and you apply occipital fiber tension, the key indicator is this: the pain should reduce while the fiber challenge increases.

That response tells you the nervous system is organizing and that you are working in the correct direction. Indicator-based assessment keeps the focus on function, not symptoms, and guides more effective, specific adjusting.

This level of evaluation is foundational to cranial and pediatric work and is a core focus of the SOT® Pediatric Certificate Program through the Peak Potential Institute.

Visual Analysis – Its Role in Determining Cranial Distortions.

This course represents an important step forward in how we teach assessment, pattern recognition, and clinical decision-making. Visual Analysis is designed to deepen clinical insight, sharpen observational skills, and bring greater clarity and confidence to your cranial evaluation process. Before hands-on assessment begins, the visual system often reveals the neurological and structural patterns guiding care.

The program will begin in just a couple of weeks, and this first launch is an opportunity to be part of the foundational group shaping how this material is integrated into practice.

I hope you will join us as we open this program for the first time and continue advancing the way we understand and evaluate cranial distortions.

Registration closes on January 19
