Breath has not always been a focus in pediatric treatment. New information is shedding light on how respiration impacts many aspects of development. It is, therefore, necessary for us to take a more in-depth and active approach to breathe function in our clients with regulatory, sensory processing, and/or sensory-motor dysfunction.
Current study of breathing restrictions, be they structural, functional, or the result of trauma or allergies, is identifying associations with regulatory disorders such as sleep apnea, sleep patterns, ADD, and ADHD. There is also a high correlation with respiratory dysfunction and dysfunction in feeding (ingestion, digestion, and elimination), postural foundations, endurance, and precision for skilled motor outcomes.
This workshop will emphasize the process of respiratory development, from in utero on, as it relates to typical and atypical sensory processing and sensory-motor processing and development. We will discuss how this applies to the assessment and treatment of pediatric clients with varied diagnoses. Using lectures, slides videos, we will explore assessment and treatment options to address various dysfunctional respiratory patterns.

What Our Course Participants Say
"Excellent knowledge, approaches, and understanding of topic" – Aviva, OT
"Videos and photos were clear and pertinent" – Carly
"Knowledgeable presents, with functional and purposeful assessment and intervention strategies that can be carried over immediately into practice!" – Megan, OT
"All parts of this webinar were useful! The information presented was comprehensive and yet made easily accessible by the handouts. As a school-based SLP, I was at a loss as to how to start assessing and treating respiration in order to target phonation with a handful of students over the past few years. This webinar refreshed my knowledge of neuroanatomy and provided me with implementation techniques I can use immediately. " – Anne
"Great information for both clinical reasoning and treatment ideas" – Lisa
