Connected Paediatrics Weekly: Check those systems


Hi Reader

Dad Joke: What happens if you eat Christmas decorations? You get tinsel-itis

Song of the Week: Coldplay - Man in the Moon

This week was…interesting.

I got an email from a student saying that they couldn’t access the technique bank on our membership. Now the technique bank is kind of the backbone of the operation, it’s where you go when you need to know how to adjust a sphenoid, test a newborns tone, help out with tummy time etc…it’s a quick reference when you need it…and it needs to be up and running!

Turns out our learning platform decided to update and we needed to tweak a few things to get the technique bank up and running, quick turnaround and everything was sorted chop chop…

But… it made me take a good hard look at the content.

Turns out we have covered a lot of ground on the masterclasses in the last few years, the research has updated and even though the technique bank is awesome…it could be even more awesome.

So that’s the new plan…updates.

But I wouldn’t have thought of it had we not had a crisis that made me refocus.

How are the forms in your office, the systems for new patients, your care plan maintenance? If you haven't looked over them in a while, take this as the sign to review. You may find there is space for more awesome in your practice

P.S. If you are already on the membership…you’re in for a holiday treat…we’re uploading new content to the technique bank all this week.

Chat soon,

Mike

A leek! “It’s just a bit tight.” “That area is a bit stuck.” I used to say this ALL the time to parents and, to be fair, it always felt like good communication. I was telling the mom what I was finding with her child. This was good, this was important …this set me up to fail. Let me explain. When you...

Hi Reader Reminder: There are a few spots left to attend Cranial Kinetics in Wales on 9 & 10 May. Book your spot asap here HERE! Dad Joke: Why did Cookie Monster apply for a marketing job? He heard they were tracking cookies. So... Numbers are low…you’ve thought about running ads. Maybe you are running ads. Funnels, lead magnets, “this one weird trick chiropractors are using in 2026”… and yet it still feels harder than it should to get new patients through the door. So, the answer is more...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Just when you don't think vegetables don't have phones. Onion Rings If you learnt what I learnt - it goes like this…babies start with the primary thoracic and sacral curves and then along the line the secondary cervical and lumbar curves develop as they get involved with gravity…Useful, yes. But what if that is only the beginning? What if the cranium has its own curve logic? What if the knees and ankles are not just hinges, but expressions of how force is being organized...
