Some statistics indicate that a stroke occurs every 40 seconds in the US and there are 1.7 million brain injuries that occur each year. This 2 day course will discuss the concepts of the physical care and evidence based principals to create results in clinical interventions based upon NDT concepts for stroke, hemiplegia, brain injury and general motor control issues.
