Description |
This 2-day introductory to intermediate level course is designed for physical and occupational therapists treating children with neurological challenges whose functional goals require attaining and maintaining vertical. This includes the ability to acquire stance, vertical mobility, and daily living activities that occur in vertical. Current philosophy and principles of posture and movement, sensation, and cognition will be presented as it relates to treatment of gait and acquisition of skills in vertical. Experiential labs will be used to facilitate one another through movement transitions and to learn handling techniques for the treatment of function in vertical. Critical thinking will be emphasized in task analysis and problem-solving opportunities via case studies and experiential lab.
