Neurodynamik

Kurset fokuserer på aspekter i undersøgelse og behandling af børn med lidelser i CNS, neurodynamisk mobilisering og planlægning af individuelle hjemmeprogrammer. En del af kurset er praktisk og retter sig mod undersøgelse og behandling af børn. Udvælgelsen af hvilke børn, der inddrages på kurset, vil afspejle kursisternes arbejdsområder. For at fremme læringsaspektet er kurset opdelt i to moduler, så der herved gives mulighed for at arbejde med det lærte mellem modul 1 og modul 2.

Indhold

• Theoretical knowledge of neurodynamics and pathoneurodynamics
• The interdependency of biomechanical and physiological reactions of the nervous system 

• Handling skills to perform the neurodynamic tests, especially under the conditions after a central lesion, or to children needs and release positions.
• Analysis of children's activities with a focus on neural structure adaptations
• Movement analysis with focus on neural structures
• Reactions of neural tissue to limitations / restrictions
• Positioning and body control during therapy eating, resting time and sleeping.
• Giving back and / or establishing self-confidence by getting better body control

The aim of the course 

Assess the mobility of the nervous system.

Establish the location of the resistance in the nervous system and in the target tissues which is preventing normal mobility and selective muscle activity.

Use neurodynamic tests and their components, if possible, as treatment techniques to regain the mobility of the nervous system in order to overcome compensatory postures, evasive movements, disturbed sensation and abnormal pattern of movement

Do neural mobilizations during daily live activities or other activities of interest in case of severe proprioception disorder or less understanding of abstract treatment techniques.

Facilitate selective movements after nervous system mobilization, according to activity and participation level of ICF.

Understand the underlying neural mechanisms of developing secondary problems like contractures, scoliosis etc., as a prerequisite to reduce them.

Choose adequate interventions which are fitting both to well-known concepts and to the mobilization for shortening neural tissue.

Support the children's cognitive processes by giving them more reliable body structures.
