Seminar Description: During this two-day seminar, the participant will learn about the principles and strategies of the Contemporary Practice of NDT as currently applied to adults with profound impairments resulting from stroke or traumatic brain injury. The emphasis will be on improving early mobility from the bed, seated postural balance, and early transitional movement skills during meaningful and functional tasks, as well as the application of tactile feedback to enhance effective movement strategies for the successful completion of these tasks. The seminar emphasizes a problem-solving approach to integrated patient assessment based on an understanding of functional limitations, system impairments, and motor dysfunction. The information presented includes a discussion of the following topics: contraversive pushing behavior, research supporting neuro recovery and neuroplasticity, and the identification of treatment variables promoting neuroplastic changes. The seminar includes lectures and interactive problem-solving laboratory sessions to practice therapeutic handling techniques to optimize treatment activities to address motor dysfunction.


NDT Foundations: Understanding Interventions that Lead to Improved Function Outcomes

Seminar Description: This will be a two-day introductory live seminar for OT/OTA, PT/PTA, and SLP. This interdisciplinary seminar is designed to help clinicians enhance their skills in the assessment and interventions toward improved function for patients with stroke or brain injury. Participants will be guided toward a thorough understanding of movement throughout the whole body that is either helpful or counterproductive and how that movement directly links to future participation in daily life skills such as bathing, dressing, eating, transferring and walking. Through lecture, lab, patient demonstration and/or video analysis, as well as group problem solving participants will gain practical assessment and intervention skills to help facilitate improved function in the patients they serve e.g., functional mobility, BADL/IADL, eating and swallowing, breath support/communication throughout the continuum.

Seminar Description: We know early intervention is critical for optimizing an infant’s development and functional potential; therefore, as clinicians, we are seeking ways to promote their participation. This course is designed for the pediatric therapist who desires to improve their assessment and intervention in the treatment of babies and young children. Important aspects of development will be addressed in this course through both didactic lectures and labs, as well as problem-solving labs that build on a solid foundation of typical and atypical components, along with sensory components that impact development. Direct handling will be discussed and practiced during labs using a multidisciplinary approach, working from an understanding of current, contemporary Neuro-Developmental Treatment (NDT) practice models to assessment and intervention. This application will be applied to babies and children during functional skills such as ADLs and play, and during participation.

Seminar Description: This two-day course is an intermediate-level course that presents the Core Principles of the Contemporary Practice of Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) and treatment strategies as they relate to neurologically impaired upper- and lower-extremity function. Both typical and hemiplegic UE task and gait analysis will be reviewed, including biomechanical requirements, postural control, and movement components. The emphasis will be on advancing both movement analysis and therapeutic handling skills during meaningful, functional tasks and mobility that impact participation and engagement during daily living skills, such as occupational tasks like laundry, carrying groceries, and negotiating community environments. The participant will learn to identify impairments and facilitate appropriate movement strategies for optimal treatment results. This course will showcase a problem-solving approach to integrated patient assessment based on an understanding of functional limitations, system impairments, and motor dysfunction. The course consists of a patient video presentation; interactive problem-solving laboratory sessions; and handling skills practice sessions used to enhance function.
