Whole Body Treatment and Considerations for the Precrawling Infant
Course: #4208Level: Advanced 2 Hours 3361 Reviews
Master skills to implement in your practice immediately with continued Master Class. Early development for the precrawling infant is greatly influenced by a variety of factors. Early intervention and identification of abnormal behaviors can be crucial within these progressive stages. This interdisciplinary course expands upon the theory of whole-body treatment, reflex identification, and therapeutic handling to effectively assist the infant’s early initiation of mobility and fine motor control. Through practical and clinical observations, the learner develops a deeper understanding of the importance of early intervention for the precrawling infant. This course is directly related to the practice of physical therapy and is therefore appropriate for the PT/PTA.
