Course Description:
This live, virtual course is designed for OT, PT and SLPs specializing in therapy for the newborn to 12 week old infant. For those of us assessing and treating babies in this window of opportunity, we clearly see how sensory differences impact function, however, knowing what to do is less obvious. We will learn about modulation, regulation, how to create a sensory diet and more.
Join us for a sensory science journey in this unique course.
