a result, is As we need to learn how to adjust on the fly when a child throws us a curveball in a session that doesn’t fit with our treatment plan.In this recording, I will show you how to use a roadmap to navigate the muddy waters of feeding and learn how to seamlessly move between sensory, motor and behavior strategies to create the best-individualized treatment plan for each child.Through video case examples, I will show you treatment strategies, and hands-on exercises to gain the knowledge needed to successfully treat feeding difficulties.You’ll walk away with advanced techniques to:Evaluate the causes of mealtime difficulties: behavior, sensory, oral motor, or a combinationIncrease the range of foods, decrease rigidity around mealtimesIncrease jaw strength and decrease ineffective lip closure, or poor tongue lateralizationUse deep breathing and proprioceptive input to address self-regulation at the tableEducate parents and caregivers to promote carryover at homeIncrease self-regulation around feedingIncrease food play and exploration to increase food acceptanceDon’t miss out!.
