Toe Walking: Therapeutic Evaluation & Treatment
The best place to start!
This course teaches practitioners to assess toe walking through a holistic view of the child, including biomechanics & sensory processing, to develop a systematic approach to devise an effective treatment plan. This course will change how you think about & treat toe walking! This information is applicable to therapists in school-based, clinical, home, and hospital settings.

Toe Walking: In-Depth Clinical Applications
Recommended to complete "Evaluation & Treatment"
Clinicians will expand upon what was previously learned to identify an etiology-based problem list, choose suitable, appropriate, and feasible interventions and develop a relevant plan of care specific to the problems of each individual child.
Participants must attend Therapeutic Evaluation & Treatment first.

Treatment of Motor Issues in Children with Sensory Dysfunction
Can be taken on its own or as a great follow up to the Toe Walking courses!
A practical “Sensory-Aware” approach to treat children with both underlying gross motor & sensory dysfunction. You will learn to utilize sensory-aware skills that are based in functional strengthening & coordination activities to maximize the effectiveness of your treatments. You will leave this course with the ability to improve children’s postural control, foundational weakness, instability, incoordination, motor planning, & restricted mobility by utilizing sensory knowledge to improve functional outcomes & increase participation in school and at home.

Therapeutic Evaluation & Treatment of Pediatric Gait
This course clearly explains the significant components of evaluation and treatment of pediatric gait, in a clinically relevant manner. Flaws of a “wait and see” approach will be discussed, while supporting proactive and preventive intervention with proposed methods for deliberate, realistic and effective intervention for pediatric gait. The increased prevalence of developmental delay will be considered, with proposed etiologies, assessment of pre-gait skill performance, related orthopedic consequences and the future effects of this diagnosis on postural control and ambulation. Neuroplasticity, and the opportunities it provides for therapists, is explained. Orthopedic development is presented as it concerns appropriate development of an adequate base of support and assessment of the pediatric lower quarter. In summary, participants will leave with skills and treatment tools to immediately put into practice.
The Pediatric Foot: Development, Function, Assessment & Intervention
This course provides a review of ideal boney architecture and presents a greater understanding of ideal foot position & function, while discussing optimum muscle activity. Science & research findings are described from a clinical perspective. Age specific values & assessment procedures are presented, together with proposed reasons to intervene and suggested methods of intervention.
Why Fuss Over A Flat Foot (& other pediatric problems!)
This webinar describes how poor alignment negatively affects frontal plane stability, base of support, muscle balance, over all balance, coordination, & postural control. Intervention strategies, including specific considerations for orthotics, are provided.
