SUMMARY:Trauma Informed Approach to Sensory Processing Disorder and Arousal Regulation - Chicago Area
DESCRIPTION:There is a growing understanding\, and accompanying clinical practice that addresses the connection between sensory processing dysfunction and trauma. When an individual cannot adequately process sensory information or traumatic experiences\, the body’s natural defense mechanisms become heightened\, further impacting sensory processing disorder. This two-day\, hands-on course will explore\, from a trauma informed perspective\, the connections between sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. Interactive\, hand-on labs\, videos and case presentations will bring key concepts and treatment strategies to life in this theoretically based\, yet practical workshop. \nRegistration includes a Gertie Ball\, a Power Up Ball and a Pinky Ball. \nTake an additional discount of $25 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously. Discount applied at checkout. \n        \n            Printable Brochure\n        \n      \nLocation\nMilestones – For Kids’ Success\n2901 Finley Road; Suite 101\nDowners Grove\, IL 60515 \nSchedule\n\n        \n            Full Agenda\n        \n    \nDay 1: Friday\, April 6\, 2018\, 8:30am – 4:30pm CDT\nDay 2: Saturday\, April 7\, 2018\, 8:30am – 4:30pm CDT\nCheck-in begins at 8:00am CDT on day one and day two. \nLevel\nIntroductory \nInstructor\nSheila M.

SUMMARY:Quickshifts - Shifting Gears - London Course
DESCRIPTION:This series of albums uses the principles of binaural beat technology and musical entrainment; where albums are specifically selected to match rhythms to clinical outcomes\, such as self-regulation\, bilateral motor coordination\, oculomotor functioning\, reflex integration\, attention\, and focus. Due to the practical implementation and immediate effect of these albums\, they are easily utilized in a variety of environments. Quickshifts can effectively be used in treatment sessions\, home programs\, school setting\, or as a support prior to times of increased anxiety\, such as during transitions. Even more\, you will learn how to solidify changes through treatment strategies that activate movement and the power of the core (posture/breath). Come learn how to develop precise and strategic intervention techniques for the clinic\, home\, and school. \n\n        \n            Enrollment Page\n        \n    \nInternational Location\nHamilton House\nMabledon Place\, Kings Cross\nLondon\, WC1H 9BD\nUnited Kingdom \nSchedule\nFriday\, April 27\, 2018\, 9:00am – 5:00pm GMT \nLevel\nIntroductory \nInstructors\nAnna Richardson; B.Sc.
