Course overview
Spasticity can be present in many of the conditions we treat as occupational therapy professionals. And, it can add significant cost and burden for our patients. The article we are discussing in this 1-hour course gives you a big-picture overview of the science behind what we know (and don't know!) about spasticity. You'll find certain approaches (that I've personally used!) that have NOT been supported by the research-but also which modalities have a growing body of evidence behind them. After reviewing the research, we'll be joined on the podcast by neuro OT, Scott Thompson, OTD, MOT, OTR/L, CRSR, LSVT-BIG to discuss implications for your practice!
