Participants will be assisted to improve their observational and direct handling skills with analysis and problem solving using NDT techniques. Both didactic lecture and hands-on labs will be presented throughout this course. Therefore, it is recommended that participants bring comfortable clothing for treatment labs. In addition to didactic information and handling practice, videos, and problem-solving labs may be used to further enhance learning. Discussion will be included addressing current research and adjuncts used with pediatric clients.

Upon completion of this course participants will be able to:

• Discuss the basis for NDT including history and current NDT philosophy with clinical     application for assessment and intervention planning using ICF model.
• Identify key components during assessment of single and multiple system impairments addressing the postural and movement systems for intervention and improved function.
• Discuss using current concepts of NDT to identify a functional goal, identify key impairments and plan treatment intervention strategies.
• Demonstrate a variety of handling stategies utilizing NDT intervention for improving functional independence.
