Join Mary Kawar and Sheila Frick as they provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the role of the vestibular and proprioceptive systems in everyday life\, and how participation is ultimately impacted when the functioning of these systems is compromised. Furthermore\, participants will examine the relationship of the vestibular system\, via links to the autonomic nervous system\, to sensory modulation and emotional regulation. In the context of clinical case examples\, participants will gain an understanding of how to precisely analyze\, adapt and apply powerful treatment activities proven to optimize therapeutic objectives and outcomes for clients with diverse functional limitations in a variety of treatment settings (clinic\, school\, and home). Innovative video examples will demonstrate new ways of treating and progressing treatment activities for your clients. This course is open to all therapists interested in augmenting and expanding their understanding of the vestibular-proprioceptive systems. \nLocation\nOnline \nSchedule\n\n \n Full Agenda\n \n \nSaturday\, September 17\, 2016\, 8:30am – 4:30pm CDT \n**Note: if enrolling after 5:00pm CDT on 9/16/16\, webinar access information\nwill be provided after 8:00am CDT on 9/17/16.

Core function will be explored from its developmental roots in the unfolding of the primary movement patterns (innate reflex development). Two key patterns (Moro and Tonic Labyrinthine) and their connections to core development and self-regulation will be discussed. A specific play-based observation tool that identifies core movement challenges and assists in prioritizing treatment strategies will be presented and explored through movement labs. Along with assessment\, a variety of hands-on treatment strategies will be demonstrated through interactive labs. Video case presentation will be used to show practical clinical applications. \n \n Enrollment Brochure\n \n \nLocation\nConnecticut Children’s Medical Center\n282 Washington Street\nHartford\, CT 06106 \nSchedule\n\n \n Full Agenda\n \n \nDay 1: Saturday\, October 15\, 2016\, 8:30am – 4:30pm EDT\nDay 2: Sunday\, October 16\, 2016\, 8:30am – 4:30pm EDT \nLevel\nIntroductory \nCourse Objectives\nUpon completion of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe the anatomical components of the inner and outer core.\nDiscuss the significance of vestibular visual and auditory input for core development.\nDemonstrate three strategies that activate inner core for the purpose of stability and self-regulation.\nDiscuss the importance of complete expression and integration of the Moro and Tonic Labyrinthine reflex for core development and self-regulation.\nDiscuss the importance of respiratory patterns and their relationship to core activation.\n\n\nScroll to the bottom of the page to Register.\n\n \n Continuing Ed \n \n \nVital Links is an AOTA approved provider of continuing education.
