Building Blocks for Sensory Integration

May 12, 2017 - May 13, 2017

| $395
Therapy Ball Bundle

Discounted Therapy Ball Bundle available at Checkout

This two-day, online course provides practitioners with an in-depth understanding of the developmental and neurophysiological links between sensory integration and the basic primary movement patterns that provide the foundation (or building blocks) for sensory modulation and integration. Beginning with support of the primitive reflexes, we will explore the development of posture and its relationship to gross and fine motor skills along with visual and auditory function. Demonstrations, movement labs and video case examples will highlight treatment strategies that can be implemented with and without therapy equipment, making them appropriate for all clinical settings.

Receive the Gertie Ball and Power Up Ball for the special rate of $25 when you add the Therapy Ball Bundle to your course registration. Contact Us for more details.

Take an additional discount of $20 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously.
