The pediatrician should be referring to you. Not the ENT. Not the myofunctional therapist. You. That's not a fantasy. It's what happens when chiropractors own this work the way it deserves to be owned.

This episode is Dr. Anthony laying out exactly what he built, why he built it, and who it's for. No mechanism deep-dives. No practice management rabbit holes. Just the course (Foundations of Cranial Adjusting) and the honest case for why it exists.

What's covered:

Why cranial subluxation correction is uniquely chiropractic, and why handing it off to CST or dumbing it down to general releases is costing the profession real authority
The gap most docs fall into after cranial seminars: too many techniques, no clear sequence, no idea how to present it or price it
How the course is actually structured: online modules first, biweekly live Q&As, then a hands-on intensive built entirely around reps
The competency requirement: you need to come in at a five to leave at a nine, and Dr. Anthony is serious about not letting underprepared attendees wreck the room
Level one covers the foundational clinical and business piece. Level two gets into specific adjustment strategies, examination nuance, and how to roll it out with existing and new patients.
How to build margin in a neurologically based principled practice without adding shockwave, neuropathy protocols, or supplements, and still get paid the way your skill level demands

The numbers matter here: 700 to 1,000 new neural connections per second in the first three years of life. 90% of facial growth done by age 12. 90% of full cranial size reached by age two. What happens inside that system during that window has consequences that show up for decades. You can trace the mechanism. Nobody else can.
