This is a 2-day course designed for physical therapists treating pediatric clients with standing and gait disorders. The course emphasizes a knowledge base of normal adult gait and the developmental stages of normal pediatric gait as a basis for treatment. The last day includes opportunities for "hands on" practice to integrate the principles learned in the course. The course examines body alignment, joint motion and muscle activation in adult gait. The same parameters are analyzed in the developmental progression from early weight bearing through cruising, early ambulation and the toddler gait. Practical application to treatment techniques will be included in demonstration labs and short treatment sessions with pediatric clients.
