Astronaut Training – A Sound Activated Vestibular-Visual Protocol – Live Webinar
October 13 - October 14
| $400Free Course Preview
Curious why precise activation of the vestibular system is critical to function? Listen to Mary and Sheila as they discuss the power of this sensory system!
Without clear information coming from the vestibular system, sights and sounds in the environment do not make sense – they are only isolated pieces of information disconnected from each other and from the meaningful whole. It is integration of sensory information that holds the key for finding meaning in the world. This two-day course will explore the connections of the vestibular-visual-auditory triad and their subsequent impact on function. Additionally, this course will provide participants with a precise template for intervention strategies, including administration of Astronaut Training.

Occupational therapists, speech/language pathologists, physical therapists, educators, human services professionals, and other medical professionals. Graduating students or graduate students of the aforementioned fields are also welcome.
