Sensation to Function
From Sensation to Function – A Sensorimotor Affective-Treatment Perspective
This practical two-day, activity-oriented workshop provides a theoretical overview of sensorimotor integration and its impact on postural organization, and the underpinnings of visual and auditory attention. Additionally, participants will explore each of the sensory systems and their impact on arousal, affect regulation, organization of functional movement patterns that support attention and learning. An experiential learning lab will introduce a specific clinical observation tool that will more precisely guide treatment planning. Participants will leave with an understanding of treatment principles and practical activity suggestions that can be tailored to each individual and are appropriate for a variety of environments. Come dressed to move, explore, and learn!
