This half-day CPD session will explore how the autonomic and immune systems are formed, how they develop over time, and how they interact with one another. We will review key developmental windows and the effects of external and intrinsic influences on early childhood health. Practical components will focus on applied approaches, exploring how we can actively support balance within these systems and promote health in young children.
Our mentoring programme provides qualified osteopaths with an experiential introduction to the clinical reality of paediatric practice. The programme is based in our open-plan teaching clinic, where you will have the opportunity to observe trainee paediatric osteopaths and our experienced teaching faculty working collaboratively to provide care to a diverse group of patients.
This half day workshop will explore the relationship between our autonomic responses and how we feel. The Poly-vagal theory will be used as a model to help us relate to the dominant autonomic responses in our patients. The concept of emotions mediated by peptides will be introduced. Time will be split between theory and practical work with an emphasis on clinical applications.
The course will cover primitive reflex assessment from birth to adolescence, as well as basic sensory and reflex integration exercises appropriate for a range of ages and developmental levels. Additionally, content will be presented in light of current research findings. By the end of this course, you will be able to identify a range of primitive reflexes across paediatric age groups and have tools to assist in reflex integration, with the aim of being able to immediately apply these techniques in clinical practice.
Children are facing increasing health challenges and becoming increasingly unwell. Most modern lifestyles have led to dramatic changes to the structure of cranial and facial bones. This CPD session will focus on the importance of Early Diagnosis and an Interdisciplinary Approach to Treatment in order to achieve optimal child health. Osteopaths, Ear, Nose and Throat specialists (ENTs), Oral Myofunctional Therapists (OMTs), and Dentists all play a role in this proactive, collaborative approach to improve care, health, and children’s wellbeing.
