(8 Hours) This course teaches specific cranial distortion patterns originating from birth trauma and how those distortions affect infant feeding. Students will also learn how these cranial distortions often present as "tethered oral tissues" and about current controversy in the medical professions surrounding frenotomy. Students will gain hands-on cranial adjusting skills and clinical applications to offer the highest level of care for infants with feeding challenges.
We recommend taking Breastfeeding and TOTs: Functional Support Through Chiropractic (8 Hours) prior to this seminar.
Course Goal
Participants will learn to assess and adjust common cranial distortion patterns often found in infants with feeding challenges. They will also learn to confidently discuss the role of chiropractic care in restoring and supporting normal oral neurobiomechanical function required for breastfeeding.
What to Bring:Please bring a portable adjusting table (only if the seminar is not taking place at a college), an infant skull model, a baby doll (the recommended doll is JC Toys - La Baby 16"), and questions from your own patients and practices.
