Working with central nervous system (CNS) injuries is one of the most challenging aspects of rehabilitation. From spasticity and tremors to re-emerging reflexes, progress can feel frustratingly slow. This seminar is designed to solve these challenges by introducing practical neuroplasticity techniques that target the root causes of dysfunction, helping improve function faster and more effectively.
Led by Karen Pryor, PhD, PT, DPT, ND, CPRCS, and Shelly Denes, PT, CFPS, C/NDT, CGCP – with over 80 years of combined experience – you’ll gain hands-on experience in advanced interventions that address a wide range of CNS disorders, including stroke, TBI, and TIA.
By the end of this seminar, you’ll have a powerful toolkit to enhance your evaluation, improve treatment outcomes, and tackle even the most complex neurological cases with confidence. Don’t miss this opportunity to transform your approach to CNS rehabilitation.
