Describe the concepts and theories that lead to dynamic systems approach to neurological rehabilitation.

Describe the process of neuroplasticity and demonstrate techniques to enhance the ability to maximize the concepts of neuroplasticity in progressive rehab programs.

Identify how each system is intricately related to each other and develop treatment programs to utilize one system to benefit the other.

Develop exercise components to enhance motor control, movement patterns and motor learning in the neurological patient.

Utilize specific techniques to develop treatment programs for hypertonicity, myoplastic hyperstiffness, rigidity, strengthening and mobilization for the neurological patient.

Incorporate the appropriate cardio-pulmonary conditioning training for specific neurological disorders.

Properly evaluate the difference between vascular disorders and edema and perform appropriate treatment protocols.

Develop exercise protocols that assist with enhancing depth perception, focus, environmental awareness, visual-motor control and balance in the neurological patient.

Utilize a modified version of the Nagi Model to assess patients, set up specialized treatment plans and goals.

Combine Imagery and visualization to create movement strategies

Use current standardized tests and measures to evaluate patients, set up treatment plans, write goals and improve documentation to show systematic progresssion with measurable outcomes with neurological patients.

Develop exercise programs to assist with incontinence and constipation.

Incorporate mind-body exercises such as yoga, Qi Gong, Tai Chi acupressure and mediation into treatment programs for increased functional outcomes.

A Dynamic Systems Approach to Neurological Rehabilitation is organized by Healthclick and will be held from Dec 01 - 02, 2018 at Methodist Dallas Medical Center, Dallas, Texas, United States of America. The target audience for this medical event is 15 hours of CME credit.

Course Description

The course will cover therapeutic approaches for the neurological patient for strengthening, conditioning, balance, coordination, functional mobility, edema management, incontinence, and constipation. Complimentary approaches including yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, acupuncture, meditation, and visualization will be thoroughly discussed. The disease processes, current research, and treatment protocols for the special needs of patients with CVA, Parkinsons, Multiple Sclerosis, and Post Polio Syndrome will be covered. The clinician will leave this course with many exercise protocols specific for these diagnoses and will also be able to take the knowledge learned and immediately apply it to a full spectrum of neurological patients.
