SUMMARY:Finding Safety and Stability: A Trauma-Informed Sensory Motor Approach
DESCRIPTION:Therapists and other professionals who work with individuals with sensory and developmental disorders (e.g. autism spectrum\, attention deficit\, learning disabilities) often encounter clients with difficulties related to developmental trauma. Traumatic events may be overt\, such as early loss of a primary caregiver; sexual\, physical or emotional abuse; or domestic\, community and school violence. Trauma may also be innocent\, such as early hospitalization and necessary lifesaving medical procedures in the neonatal intensive care unit. Exposure to adverse life experiences has been shown to increase the likelihood of social\, emotional and developmental delays. Furthermore\, children with developmental delays have a higher risk of being subjected to experiences involving physical\, emotional and sexual abuse. \nThere 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. \nThis live\, one-day\, online course will explore the connections between trauma\, sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. Participants will learn how sound and movement are critical in the development of body based\, perceptual motor\, and social emotional foundations for feeling safe in the world and in relationship to another. Treatment labs will explore the basics of auditory and vestibular/somatosensory processing\, and their relationship to arousal\, attachment\, self-regulation\, and learning. Video and case presentations will bring key concepts and treatment strategies to life in this theoretically-based\, yet practical course. \nRegistration includes the Therapy Ball Trio (S&H fees may apply^). \nTake an additional discount of $20 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously under the same web-order. \n        \n            Printable Brochure\n        \n    \nLocation\nOnline* \nSchedule\n\n        \n            Full Agenda\n        \n    \nSaturday\, July 14\, 2018\, 9:00am – 4:45pm CDT\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CDT\nTest begins at approx. 4:15pm CDT \n*If registering after 5:30pm CDT on Friday\, July 13th\, Course Instructions will be emailed during the check-in period on Saturday\, July 14th.

SUMMARY:Astronaut Training - A Sound Activated Vestibular-Visual Protocol
DESCRIPTION:Book included with course \nWithout 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. \nRegistration includes the handbook\, Astronaut Training: A Sound Activated Vestibular-Visual Protocol for Moving\, Looking and Listening and its companion CD (S&H fees may apply^). \nTake an additional discount of $20 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously. \n        \n            Printable Brochure\n        \n    \nLocation\nOnline* \nSchedule\n\n        \n            Full Agenda\n        \n    \nDay 1: Sunday\, May 20\, 2018\, 9:00am – 4:35pm CDT\nDay 2: Monday\, May 21\, 2018\, 9:00am – 4:35pm CDT\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CDT on day one & day two.\nTest begins at approx. 4:05pm CDT on day two. \n*If registering after 4:30pm CDT on Friday\, May 18th\, Course Instructions will be emailed during the check-in period on Sunday\, May 20th.

SUMMARY:Core Connections - Exploring the Core's Developmental Roots
DESCRIPTION:Core Concepts in Action Book \nThis live\, online course will provide therapists with a clear description of musculoskeletal make-up of the “core” and will cover the research-based neurophysiological rationale for evaluating core development and function in individuals with sensory processing difficulties. 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\, online labs.

SUMMARY:Trauma Informed Approach to Sensory Processing Disorder and Arousal Regulation
DESCRIPTION:Save nearly $100\nWhen you register for both this course &\nthe May 18th Quickshifts webinar\nThere 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 live\, one-day online course will explore the connections between trauma\, sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. We will also provide a brief overview of the tension reducing technique\, known as TRE®\, as a means of demonstrating how the body retains stress in core muscular tension patterns. Further\, we will examine how the addition of TRE® to a sensory integrative and developmental frame has subsequently informed new thinking around trauma\, sensory modulation and sensory integration. Video and case presentations will bring key concepts and treatment strategies to life in this theoretically based\, yet practical course. \nRegistration includes a Gertie Ball\, a Power Up Ball and a Pinky Ball. \nTake an additional discount of $20 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously.

SUMMARY:Listening and Beyond - a Therapeutic Listening Refresher
DESCRIPTION:Do you feel out of practice with your Therapeutic Listening clinical treatment? Seeking to learn more about new Therapeutic Listening tools? Have you emerged as your clinic’s expert in Therapeutic Listening and are now aiming to support the growth of others? In this one-day\, interactive online course\, you will learn how to augment your treatment skills\, as well as\, mentor others in the use of Therapeutic Listening. Together we will explore the integration of all the Therapeutic Listening libraries of albums\, including Modulated\, Fine Tuning\, Spatially Enhanced and Quickshifts to create a comprehensive and customized progression; and when necessary\, a follow-up boost progression. This experience will allow you to further refine your skills in matching music to specifically address each of your clients’ unique clinical picture. \nExplore how to support the enhancement of both vestibular and proprioceptive processing through the power of rhythm; and learn to recognize how to match rhythms to specific clinical presentations. Collaborative case studies will provide an opportunity to develop and discuss best practices\, further enhancing your ability to discuss clinical reasoning behind music selections with other professionals. This rationale will be used to inform goal-setting and documentation related to the use of Therapeutic Listening for clinical-based and practice-based research purposes. This course is designed for those who have already completed the Listening with the Whole Body course; completion of the Fine Tuning and Quickshift courses are not required\, but we will explore the clinical application of these selections. \nTake an additional discount of $20 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously. \n        \n            Enrollment Brochure\n        \n    \nLocation\nOnline* \nSchedule\n\n        \n            Full Agenda\n        \n    \nFriday\, March 17\, 2017\, 9:00am – 4:30pm CDT\nCheck-in begins at 8:30am CDT\nQuiz approx. 4:00pm-4:30pm CDT \nLevel\nIntermediate \nInstructors\nSheila M.
