Advanced Bobath Course - Application of the Bobath Concept; Promoting Recovery of Community Walking

Advanced Bobath Course - Application of the Bobath Concept; Promoting Recovery of Community Walking is organized by British Bobath Tutors Association (BBTA) and will be held from Oct 15 - 24, 2021 at TherapyMatters, Chester, England, United Kingdom.

Learning Objectives - Chester Advanced Bobath Course - 5 Days:
By the end of the course, the participants will be able to:
• Demonstrate advanced clinical reasoning skills in the assessment, treatment and management of neurological patients using the Model of Bobath Clinical Practice (MBCP).
• Understand the Neurophysiological systems control for feedforward and feedback postural control and human locomotion.
• Recognise key biomechanics and neuromuscular features underpinning efficient human gait, especially in relation to the challenges of community walking, and relate this to the impact of pathology.
• Understand the greater biomechanical challenge, and maintenance of dynamic balance, of stair walking, relative to walking on level ground.
• Analyse and improve the efficiency of movement components required to ascend and descend the stairs.
• Understand the role of sensation, the role of the foot, and body schematics, in posture and movement control.
• Use a knowledge of neural control and key biomechanical features in order to clinically reason priorities for treatment within the neurological patient population who have potential to return to community walking.
• Apply and use the evidence base concerning human locomotion to optimize recovery of community mobility and function.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
