Catch the Wave! Introduction to Whole Body Vibration in Pediatric Therapy for PTs, OTs, and SLPs

Course overview

This course is designed for pediatric Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, and Speech Therapists, to understand the foundations of therapeutic vibration as a modality. Attendees will examine the underlying biomechanical forces applied to the body using the Galileo side-alternating mechano-stimulation platform to safely and effectively enhance therapy outcomes with children. Alignment and positioning with hands-on lab time will allow attendees to practice UE, LE, breathing and voicing activities on the Galileo. Case studies of children with various diagnoses will demonstrate parameters, positions and follow up activities to optimize pediatric PT, OT and speech therapy.
