Neuropracticity 2026: A Course in Practical Neuroplasticity for Functional Change in Neurorehabilitation

Beskrivelse af arrangementet

 
 
How do we accelerate recovery with adaptive devices and technology? How do we identify physiologic changes that occur in many individuals months or years after brain injury? How can we help these individuals achieve gains from within and outside of the nervous system? How do we determine and apply the best dosage of success and error with each person?
 
Join us on this course with Physiotherapist Dr. Mike Studer, Clinical expert in neurologic physical therapy since 1995, author of over 40 published articles, and an internationally recognized lecturer. Clinician of the Year in the Neurologic 2011 and in the Geriatric Academies of the APTA 2014. 
 
The course is held in English. 

We highly recommend that you visit Mike Studers resources:
 
 
Booking is open separately for the first or both days course on Aug 25 + 26.
Participation limit is 50 participants on first day, and 25 on second day. 


August 25:
A novel and practical clinical application to induce functional improvement
 
This course will reveal a novel and intense clinical approach built specifically for persons engaged in recovery from all forms of acquired brain injury and including those with Functional Neurologic Disorders (FND). This applications-based and evidence-informed approach includes interventions that are designed and built with consideration for the unique attributes of changes in the body and brain days, months and years after acquired brain injury and with disease-onset for years. Additionally, this application will reveal incorporation of recent advances in motivation, motor learning, and practice – displaying all through videotape and in-person case study demonstration. Attendees will be engaged in a thought-provoking presentation that challenges previous misconceptions about: tone/dystonia, the timeline of neuroplastic recovery and the potential to mitigate progressive conditions including MS, PD, and more.
 
This presentation builds on recent evidence of high-intensity interval training, procedural memory training, circuit training, task specific overtraining, motor learning, OPTIMAL, forced-use and many more – across mobility, communication, cognition and ADL applications, providing the learner from all practice points with tools to rehabilitate clients regardless of equipment and technological availability.
 
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to: 
  1. Identify physiologic changes that occur in many individuals months and years post CVA, brain injury, and with PD. Question: How is an ischemic stroke different from embolic in rehabilitation timing and needs?
  2. Apply recent evidence in motor learning and motivation to maximize the recovery for clients in brain injury rehabilitation. Question: How can we help these individuals achieve gains from within and outside of the nervous system?
  3. Apply recent evidence in practice structure and feedback to maximize the recovery for clients after brain lesion/injury. Question: How do we determine and apply the best dosage of success and error with each person?
  4. Debunk rehabilitation myths about recovery dependence on timing and technology in effective rehabilitative outcomes in those with brain injury, degenerative disease, or stroke. Question: Can we accelerate recovery with adaptive devices and technology? How?
Session Outline: Full day (7 hours)
  • Introduction to the physiologic and morphologic changes in stroke recovery, degenerative disease, persistent conditions (pain, FND, PPPD) and brain injury (including concussion).
  • Evidence in neurologic rehabilitation to date: successes, limitations and opportunities
  • Live patient demonstration: Stroke recovery
  • Novel clinical application in rehabilitation: cognition, motivational and exercise attributes
  • Novel clinical applications in rehabilitation: practice structure and feedback attributes
  • Two case studies: Live patient demonstration: PD, MS, Stroke, traumatic brain injury or concussion.
  • Questions and summary

Neuropracticity: A next-level course with hands-on clinical applications
 
 
This course will reveal a next-level intense clinical approach built specifically for persons engaged in recovery from all forms of acquired brain injury: Stroke, PD, MS, parkinsonisms and genetic disorders influencing the brain. This focused course will include case-based applications in a laboratory and explorational approach, supported by lecture and research.  Attendees will take a deep dive into neuroplasticity: Clinical decision-making, dosage, augmenting errors, forced use, leveraging and promoting sensation, and more!

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to: 
  1. Identify and apply the soft skills and applications of how we engage with our patients.
  2. Identify and apply the principles and applications of error engagement.
  3. Identify and apply the integration of sensation and perception in recovery of function.
  4. Identify and apply the principles of disease mitigation in persistent conditions: Chronic stroke, PD, MS, parkinsonisms and more.
Session Outline: Full day (7 hours)
  • Precision rehabilitation: We cannot spell precision without person
  • Debunking the myths in neurologic rehabilitation: Tone, spasticity, recovery timeframe, and more
  • Error augmentation – A key tool in forcing neuroplastic change
  • Controlling the degenerative diseases: Next level of expertise in mitigation and recovery
  • Case studies: Live investigation and application: Part one – degenerative diseases
  • The power of perception and sensation in motor control recovery
  • Case studies: Live investigation and application: Part two – stroke and brain injury.
  • Questions and summary.
