On this week’s episode of what is Dr. Lydia learning now and what certification is she completing? 🤓
21 weeks of learning, growth, and refining the skills that allow me to better serve the babies, children, and families in my practice.
This weekend in Dallas, I completed the Peak Potential Institute Pediatric Certification Program, an intensive course focused on pediatric neurology, development, spinal and cranial evaluation, and hands-on assessment and treatment techniques.
Over the course of the program, we explored:
👶🏻 Nervous system development and its impact on childhood growth and function
🧠 Primitive reflexes and sensory development
👣 Comprehensive pediatric examination protocols from infancy through childhood
💀 Cranial anatomy, cranial assessment, and evaluation of cranial asymmetries
👄 Palate, tongue-tie, TMJ, nursing, latching, and swallowing considerations
🌱 Developmental influences on posture, movement, and neurological organization
🤲🏼 Hands-on spinal and cranial assessment and treatment techniques designed specifically for pediatric patients
One of the biggest takeaways was gaining an even deeper appreciation for how interconnected the nervous system, cranial structures, movement patterns, reflexes, and developmental milestones are during the earliest years of life.
I’m grateful for the incredible instructors and , the hands-on mentorship, and the opportunity to learn alongside such a passionate group of providers. I am excited to bring this knowledge back to my patients and continue helping children build strong foundations for growth, movement, and development.
Always a student. Always learning. Always striving to provide the best care possible.
