Description

Falls are NOT inevitable, even in individuals with neurologic diseases. New models and the neurobiology of pathological fatigue as it relates to Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and COVID-19 ‘Long Haulers’ will be introduced.

Furthermore, the science behind neuroplasticity, proprioception, muscle tone and balance will be analyzed to reduce fall risk in this population. We will also examine somatosensory components of movement and the impact on fall risk as well as autonomic dysregulation and how to rewire the autonomic nervous system.

You will leave this course with comprehensive screening and assessment tools along with an awareness for how to use effective interventions utilizing neuroplasticity.
