Harnessing the Power of Bone Conduction
May 3, 2018
| $75Live Webinar with Recording Access!
This half-day, online course will explore the neurodevelopmental and therapeutic significance of bone conduction for enhanced vestibular, somatosensory, and visual integration to facilitate spatial orientation, core stability, praxis, executive functioning, and more. Learn the power of utilizing the audio-vocal loops in conjunction with respiration, posture, and movement to ignite self-generated bone conduction—from the inside out and the outside in. Participants will be introduced to a groundbreaking therapeutic tool called the Forbrain® which utilizes a dynamic filter to amplify the user’s voice through bone conduction.
