What is Applied Neurology?
Neurology is often perceived to be the realm of medical doctors and surgeons, out of reach of day-to-day practitioners, or not within their scope of work. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.
When working with patients and clients, health and training practitioners alike need to be aware that they are ALWAYS utilising and training the nervous system.
Functional neurological deficits – whether from injury, disuse, reconditioning, or developmental issues – affect thousands of people every day who have not suffered from a severe brain trauma, stroke, or neurological disease. Instead, these functional neurological deficits show up as any area of the body lacking in ability, performance, or control. That could be anything from poor coordination in hand/eye reaction, to difficulty walking, speaking, controlling fine or gross motor movements, or differences in side-to-side posture and strength. Furthermore, some clients deal with daily pain, such as headaches, joint pain, inflammation, or neurological pain (such as tingling, burning, and numbness) that all stem from functional neurological deficits.
This course will provide you with a “brain-based lens” through which the body systems and integrated functions can be understood, so that you can implement day-to-day neurology training exercises in your daily routines. It will introduce you to the anatomy and function of several of our most important neurological systems – those used for movement, balance, and postural control – and help you learn and implement practical neurological exercises that can help to restore these systems to optimal function.
When working with children or adults who have developmental issues or mental challenges, these tools can be used to regulate the nervous system, improve attention, focus, and communication, and create balance and optimal movement in the body systems.
After taking this course, you will understand why neurology training is NOT just for doctors or for patients of neurological injury or disease, but a toolset that can benefit EVERYONE.
