Description
Harness the potential of neuroplasticity in pediatrics by examining the most recent evidence behind it and integrating task-specific, cutting-edge strategies into your practice immediately. Join one of the leading voices in neuroplasticity, Dr. Patricia Montgomery, as she shows you intervention techniques for children with neurological-based diagnoses. Her use of videotaped treatment sessions and longitudinal case studies illustrates applications for improving motor control and cognitive and perceptual functions in children.
