Lecture #1 – in two parts.  provides:

• A neurophysiology review of the Posturo-Locomotor Nervous System
• The role of the central rhythm generator and central pattern generator
• The critical components of the initiation, maintenance and termination of locomotion

Lecture #2, provides:

• An overview of the current BWST evidence base and discussion of its limitations
• The integration of key aspects of Bobath clinical practice within BWST to explore its full potential
• The application of theoretical knowledge with respect to postural control and locomotion

Practical Workshop –  Clinical Application of BWST

This practical workshop will discuss BWST set up and demonstrate specific facilitation of the foot and lower limb using a Bobath approach to optimize locomotor outcomes.
