Cranial Kinetics - Cork, Ireland

This seminar covers:

• Understanding the paediatric skull as a living, adaptive system.
• Learn why the child’s skull is not a miniature adult skull, how sutures, dura and fluid systems interact, and how growth, stress and environment shape cranial function.
• Build confident palpation skills.
• Develop perceptual awareness for sutural motion, strain patterns and dural tension.
• Connect cranial findings to real paediatric presentations.
• Understand how cranial patterns relate to feeding difficulties, reflux, sleep issues, airway problems, posture and autonomic imbalance.
• Learn clear strain protocols for children.
• Hands-on techniques working with paediatric physiology, tissue sensitivity and neurological load.
• Integrate cranial work into your care model
• See where cranial fits alongside adjusting, posture, reflexes, breathing and development.
