Sarah A. Schoen, PhD, OTR
About the Webinar
Postural Control is a multifaceted system dependent on the integration of numerous sensory and motor contributions. Posture emerges from a complex interaction among multisensory inputs with aspects of motor function such as tone, alignment, balance, and core stability. Critically, posture has an immense impact on social-emotional development and communication abilities that is often overlooked. This webinar will explore the constructs linked to posture, the connections to function and relevance to practice.
