Hands-on training changes everything.

Dr. Sarah Drake highlights one of the most critical components of mastering pediatric care—refining your evaluation and adjusting through direct feedback. When your contacts are specific and your examination is neurologically grounded, your certainty—and your results—improve.

If you’re looking to bring a more thorough, neurologically-focused approach into your practice, this level of training is essential.

Registration for the Boston SOT® Pediatric Certificate Program closes tomorrow.

If you’ve been considering advancing your pediatric skills, this is the moment to make that commitment.

The SOT® Pediatric Certificate Program is designed to give chiropractors the clinical tools needed to evaluate and adjust infants and children with confidence. Through structured protocols, indicator-based adjusting, and a deeper understanding of neurological development, this program helps doctors move beyond guesswork and into precise, reproducible clinical care.

You’ll learn how to assess the pediatric spine and cranium, identify patterns that affect development, and apply specific corrections that support the child’s nervous system during its most critical years of growth.

Programs like this are not simply about adding techniques—they are about refining your clinical certainty and elevating the level of care you provide to families in your community.

Registration closes tomorrow.
If pediatric care is part of your vision for practice, now is the time to step forward.

Dr. Martin Rosen shares the moment that shaped the direction of his career.

Like many chiropractors, the techniques he learned in chiropractic school were primarily designed for adults. But after the birth of his first child, he realized something important: while he deeply understood the philosophy of chiropractic and the importance of human potential, he had not been given the clinical tools to care for infants.

That realization sparked a deeper exploration into Sacro Occipital Technique® and cranial work. Dr. Rosen began adapting these principles to the unique anatomy and neurological development of infants and children.

His goal was simple but profound, identify and address the primary subluxation early, before a child spends a lifetime adapting and compensating for it.

That pursuit ultimately led to decades of clinical research, teaching, and the development of protocols that chiropractors around the world now use to care for pediatric patients.

Understanding how this work began provides insight into why precise evaluation and pediatric-specific adjusting are so essential today.

The vestibular system plays a critical role in neurological development, influencing balance, coordination, posture, eye movements, and spatial orientation. When this system is not functioning properly—particularly in infants and children—it can affect everything from motor development to learning and sensory integration.

For chiropractors working with pediatric populations, understanding how to accurately evaluate and correct vestibular dysfunction is essential. Indicator-based assessment allows us to determine when the vestibular system is contributing to neurological stress and how to apply specific corrections that support improved function.

In the Evaluation & Correction of the Vestibular System course, we focus on practical clinical protocols that help you identify vestibular involvement and integrate these findings into your SOT® and cranial work. The goal is not just understanding the system—but learning how to address it with clarity and clinical certainty.
Strengthen your evaluation skills and expand your ability to support neurological development in your pediatric patients.

Understanding cranial relationships is essential when evaluating pediatric patients, especially when assessing occlusion, posture, and neurological function.

The temporal bone plays a key role in determining jaw position during occlusion, while the occiput influences sphenobasilar mobility, palatal height, forward head posture, and visual tracking.

Clinically, the position of the temporal bone can be monitored through indicators such as jaw position, palpatory size of the mastoid, orbital size, and lateral skull expansion at the squamosal suture. A temporal external will often pull the jaw toward that side during occlusion and may present with a smaller mastoid, wider orbit, and a flared ear.

An occiput in extension frequently correlates with a low palate, forward head posture, and altered visual tracking, where the eyes tend to orient slightly superior when the head is held in what feels like a neutral position.

Recognizing these indicators allows chiropractors to deliver more specific, neurologically appropriate cranial corrections.

Tongue tie is often discussed as a condition affecting the infant, but clinically, we must recognize that it impacts both the baby and the mother during the breastfeeding process.
Mothers may report issues such as discomfort while nursing, plugged tear ducts, or persistent feeding challenges. These symptoms often arise because the infant is working harder to maintain a latch or compensate for restricted tongue mobility.

At the same time, the infant may present with signs such as popping off the breast, choking during feeds, or frequently spitting up milk. These indicators suggest inefficient feeding mechanics and increased stress on the developing nervous system.

For chiropractors, these cases highlight the importance of a comprehensive evaluation. When these symptoms are present, it is essential to assess not only for tongue tie but also to perform a thorough cranial examination. Restrictions within the cranial system and dural tension patterns can influence feeding function and neurological integration.

By evaluating both the structural and neurological components, chiropractors can better understand the underlying dysfunction and contribute meaningfully to collaborative care for infants and families.

Confidence in practice does not come simply from years in the field. It comes from clinical certainty—clearly understanding what you are evaluating, why you are adjusting, and how that correction influences neurological function.

When your care is guided by defined indicators and precise protocols, your adjustments become more purposeful, more consistent, and more effective.
Developing that level of clarity is a process of refining your foundation and continuing your clinical education.

The programs at the Peak Potential Institute are designed to help chiropractors strengthen their diagnostic skills, deepen their understanding of neurological development, and deliver more precise, indicator-based care.

Cranial motion plays a critical role in pediatric evaluation.

In infants and children, the cranial bones maintain mobility through the sutures and fontanelles. This motion is influenced by cerebrospinal fluid movement and tension within the dural meningeal system that connects the cranium to the spinal cord.

Two areas are especially important to assess. The sphenobasal junction, which coordinates motion throughout much of the cranium, and the palate, which influences early functions such as nursing and plays a role in proper cranial growth patterns.

When evaluating pediatric patients, it’s essential to assess not only the spine but also these cranial mechanisms to ensure healthy neurological and structural development.

Boston is always a meaningful place for our community to gather—and this year, March 17th gives us two reasons to mark the date.

While the city celebrates Saint Patrick’s Day, it is also the final day to register for the Boston Pediatric Series, and the last opportunity to join us for our final in-person programs in the United States for 2026.

These seminars are more than continuing education. They are an opportunity to refine your clinical skills, strengthen your understanding of neurological development, and deepen your ability to deliver precise, indicator-based pediatric adjustments. Most importantly, they bring together a community of chiropractors committed to serving infants, children, and families at the highest level.

If you have been considering joining us in Boston, now is the time to secure your place.

Sometimes, parents notice the signs before anyone else does.

Years ago, a mother brought her 11-year-old daughter to our office feeling unheard after seeking help elsewhere. That moment reinforced an important lesson: parents’ concerns matter.

When we listen with empathy, evaluate thoroughly, and collaborate with families, we create better outcomes for children. Let’s continue to be practitioners who listen, validate, and advocate for the health and development of every child.
