| Description |
Attend this seminar to get the strategies you need to make mealtimes more peaceful
and positive!
You will learn much more than the sensory issues causing these feeding difficulties;
we will examine behavior issues as well as oral motor difficulties. Through the use of
video case examples, I will show you treatment strategies, demonstrations, and hands
on exercises to gain the knowledge needed to successfully treat feeding difficulties in
children with Autism, Cerebral Palsy and more.
Walk away with advanced techniques to:
• Evaluate the causes of mealtime difficulties: behavior, sensory, oral motor, or a
combination
• Increase range of foods, decrease food jags
• Blend motor and sensory to address feeding delays in cerebral palsy
• Increase jaw strength and decrease ineffective lip closure, or poor tongue
lateralization
• Use deep breathing and proprioceptive input to address self-regulation at the table
• Develop tactile, auditory and smell to increase participation for kids w/decreased
vision or cortical impairment
• Educate parents and caregivers to promote carryover at home
