Course Outline:

Hour 1

Review of biodynamic embryology, orofacial development, pre- and post-natal autonomic regulation, adverse plasticization’s, functional adaptations.
Students will identify developmental aberrations leading to orofacial disruption, brainstem wiring disruptions, autonomic regulation, and our neuro-sensitive intervention approaches.
Students will identify two developmental disruptions resulting in tethered oral tissues. pre- and post-natal wiring disruption events, and two common adverse plasticization events.

Hour 2

Neurodevelopmental brain wiring dynamics and integrative circuits, creating orofacial structures.
Students will be able to identify cranial nerve and integrative circuit developmental dynamics impacting orofacial development.

Hour 3

Neuromuscular organization of mouth and throat, including fascial throat tubes. Neurovisceral dynamics impacting proper respiratory, oral and digestive function.
Perceptual to proprioceptive processes; interoceptive regulation; neurobiology of therapist presence and engagement for developmental and functional outcomes.
Students will be able to identify importance of throat tube organization, mandibular sling and pharyngeal dynamics, three positive engagement strategies to enhance developmental and functional oral motor outcomes.

Hour 4

Clinical Integration: treatment protocols for infants and children, including recommendations for integrative mouth work. From survival strategies to thriving possibilities, new wiring, landing and naming. “Landing/Learning” protocol, clinical integration strategies for home and clinic settings.
Students will be able to identify and perform the four-step process for effective connection, landing and learning (Landing/Learning Protocol). They will be able to identify three practical strategies in various treatment environments to enhance connection, landing, learning and oral motor function in their patients.

Description:

Therapists today face an ever-growing challenge of providing effective interventions for infants and children with tethered oral tissues and related disorders. Most treatment interventions approach the challenges from a mechanical perspective, without addressing the underlying neurological dysfunctions that may perpetuate the oral motor confusion.

“Neuro-Revision for Tethered Oral Tissues” Class provides therapists with critical information about the prenatal neurodevelopmental processes driving the structural aberrations, and neurophysiology-based post-natal management. Therapists will explore the biodynamic embryological development, critical brain wiring and integrative circuits, and the multidimensional function of mouth and throat structures. Therapists will learn to identify common wiring disruptions to appropriately tailor their interventions and acquire important treatment strategies for guiding proper oral motor function. Parent and caregiver needs are also addressed, with simple strategies and resources provided for optimal support and family success.
