Description:
Looking for a course that will address the treatment of approaches that produce the most progress in the shortest amount of time? Do you want to know how to combine treatment strategies in order to make each approach more effective? this course provides an overview of the "power tools" strategies most effective for the child with modulation, postural, motor and/or learning and behavioral problems. Join us and discover how the integration of a variety of strategies result in significant, measurable changes that are quick and cost effective. Treatment approaches will include: new perspectives on SI theory and practice, CranioSacral Therapy applications, metabolic considerations, modulation strategies: ie intensity concepts for sensory diet, therapeutic uses of music, rhythm and suck/swallow/breathe functions.
While some of the techniques discussed can be immediately put to use, prior experience with traditional sensory integration principles and practice will make application of these advanced approaches more meaningful and the complex nature of integrating them with current practice more successful. Basic sensory integration principles will not be covered in this course.

Objectives: Participants will be able to
1. Describe at least 3 of the presented approaches that can be integrated into treatment.
2. Describe how these approaches interact and/or support each other in comprehensive treatment of persons with sensory processing, modulation, motor, learning or autism spectrum disorders.
3. Demonstrate powerful treatment strategies for 3 or more of the approaches discussed.
4. Identify personal learning options that will enhance professional skills toward more efficient/effective treatment.
