Research indicates that there is a significant prevalence of Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) in the pediatric population and that children with SPD are often referred for physical therapy (PT) services. This one-day workshop examines recent research perspectives on the neurobiology of SPD and its impact on self-regulation, behaviour, postural control, motor learning and motor skill development. Participants will have the opportunity to become familiar with the identification of different types of sensory processing disorders. A greater understanding of SPD will facilitate learning of a variety of treatment strategies and techniques that may be employed in treatment planning within PT intervention. Specifically, discussion will focus on preschool and elementary school-age children with mild motor delays, specific motor diagnoses or children on the Autism Spectrum. Through a combination of lecture and interactive videotape analysis, clinicians will leave the workshop able to appreciate the challenges that SPD places upon motor learning and to problem solve around intervention strategies that facilitate the development of functional motor skills.
