OVERVIEW
Torticollis – Beyond the Basics: Improving Postural Alignment, Motor Skills and Feeding Outcomes Through a Multi-Disciplinary Lens - Live Webinar - Two Sessions is organized by Education Resources, Inc. (ERI) and will be held from Nov 08 - 09, 2025.
Description:
Learn important considerations and strategies beyond the basics to utilize when providing intervention to infants and children with torticollis. Torticollis is a complex diagnosis with many interrelated factors which can contribute to, cause or be associated with torticollis. By learning to think critically using a multidisciplinary lens, therapists will be better equipped to provide effective assessment and interventions. Different perspectives will be discussed and considered when implementing a multifaceted and holistic treatment approach. Attendees will be given as well the opportunity to problem solve with the presenters in the areas of developmental milestones, posture, fine/gross motor development and feeding & swallowing skills. By viewing torticollis through a multidisciplinary lens, attendees will gain effective tools to treat the multifaceted aspects of torticollis.
Learning objectives:
- Identify the embryological, neurological, anatomical, physiological, and/or developmental factors that cause, contribute to, and/or result from torticollis.
- Recognize the red flags associated with torticollis that indicate a need for further assessment.
- Relate how torticollis affects infant gross/fine motor, speech and feeding development.
- Choose an appropriate and evidence-based assessment tool to utilize when working with infants, toddlers, and children with torticollis.
- Determine when and why to apply strategies when working with infants and children with torticollis based on presenting impairment and response to intervention.
- Choose positioning strategies to improve participation in functional activities across motor, language and feeding skills.
- Recognize the contributions of different therapy disciplines in promoting feeding skills.
