You have a passion for helping children…

Working in a pediatric rehab setting, you’re already seeing children with motor, sensory & behavior deficits every day…children who have trouble walking, eating, dressing, attending school, and making friends. 

Each of these children are unique. Each one has individual gifts, values and needs. And you have the power to help these children and their families experience a better quality of life.  

These cases are challenging — which makes it critical to approach this work from an evidence-based perspective. The work is hard, but you can help each of these young people reach their maximum potential by applying lifechanging interventions. 

Which is why we’re sharing with you innovative, proven strategies and methods that treat the core issues in pediatric rehab: motor control, language, sensory development, auditory processing, reflex integration, delayed developmental milestones, and more! 

To help you get through it, we’ve brought together the nation’s top clinicians to provide you with hundreds of tools that you can start using within a matter of days, or even hours! Learn the most effective therapies to rewire the brain and discover how neuroplasticity is remapping pathways in the brain for faster, longer-lasting outcomes. 

Let this course be your secret weapon as you start changing lives for your patients and their families, teaching them how to apply these powerful skills at home.

Support the growth and development of your young patients 
 

Register for this course today and we’ll walk you step-by-step through the learning process so you can: 

  1. Assess and provide inclusive treatment interventions for complex trauma 
  2. Determine various sensory strategies for patients diagnosed with complex trauma, autism, ADHD and sensory processing disorders, including mindfulness, activation of the Vagus nerve, music and movement, respiratory-based techniques, and more 
  3. Apply neurologically tailored sensory interventions in the treatment of challenging behaviors in children, such as hyper-activity, hypo-activity, aggressiveness, self-stimulatory and inattentiveness 
  4. Evaluate primitive reflexes that have not fully integrated in children diagnosed as developmentally delayed — and understand how they influence movement patterns 
  5. Implement timing and movement activities that will focus directly on primitive reflex integration, brain development, and sensory motor skills 
  6. Articulate the principals of neuroplasticity and identify treatment tools using neuroplasticity principals for rehabilitation in the pediatric population 
  7. Create multisensory experiences for your patients that incorporate diverse and novel activities 
  8. Determine the signs and symptoms of gastro-intestinal pathology and improve breathing/swallow coordination in children with feeding difficulties 
  9. Apply physiological interventions for dysphasia, gastro-intestinal and respiratory issues that underlie food refusal as you help increase hunger and decrease GI discomfort 
  10. Design exercise programs to target specific physiological impairments for clients with dysphagia… and more!
