Outline:

Issues With Complex Feeding
Overlap of oral motor skills, sensory processing skills, and behaviors: Common misunderstandings clarified
Normative growth essentials
Assessment of Feeding Skills
Observations: behavioral or sensory reactions
Oral motor assessment for feeding: strength and range of motion of the tongue, lips, and jaw
foods that provide immediate information
For a sensory profile, quick sensory tasks
Case study: Compiling everything.
Case studies and evaluations in video
Strategies for Techniques and Treatment
Autism
Identify food rages
Increase oral motor skills by adding exciting objects to food, such as sticks and cubes.
Address issues like standing up during meals and food tossing.
Simple techniques for controlling arousal at the table that involve proprioceptive input and breathing
Desensitization of the entire system to reduce tactile responsiveness
case study in video
spinal palsy
oral motor activities that encourage lateralization of the tongue, rotational chewing, and lip closure
Simple methods to boost responsiveness
Increasing the range of motion in the lips and cheeks with tone control
A mouth-to-hand link
Techniques for handling and seating
Activities to reduce tongue thrust
Increasing oral motor muscle responsiveness through sensory input
stretching the facial muscles of the mouth to control tone for straw-drinking and chewing
video case studies
Other Delays in Development (Down Syndrome, Failure to Thrive, and Global Delays)
Simple sensory strategies for kids with impaired cortical vision and reduced eyesight
Utilize motor skills and sensory processing to treat cognitive deficits
For kids who don’t eat by mouth, there are “mealtime ideas” and oral motor activities.
Failure to thrive: create entertaining meals and pique interest
Encourage carry-over at home and inform family members and the caregiver about the complexities of feeding
Establish routines to make mealtimes at home peaceful.
Simple oral motor drills can be done while playing and eating
During lunch, simple sensory exercises can help with attention and regulation.

Description:

techniques for sensory treatment to maintain calm during meals
Reduce food cravings for autism
Feeding delays can be handled by combining motor and sensory methods.
Using deep breathing and proprioceptive input, the table can address self-regulation.

Do you work with kids with special needs who shout or weep, toss food, won’t eat at a table, or won’t try new foods? Do you know any kids who only eat a few different things or the same ones repeatedly? Do the families you work with object to going to a restaurant?

Get the tactics you need to make mealtimes more tranquil and encouraging by watching this recording!

You’ll discover much more than just the sensory problems that are preventing these feeding challenges; we’ll also look at behavioural problems and oral motor concerns. I will teach you the treatment approaches, examples, and practical exercises you need to know in order to properly treat feeding challenges in children with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, and other conditions through the use of video case examples.

Leave with knowledge of advanced methods to:

Determine whether behavioural, sensory, oral motor, or a mix of these are to blame for the difficulties during mealtime.
Expand meal selection while reducing food rage
Utilize sensory and motor input to alleviate cerebral palsy patients’ delayed feeding
Boost jaw power and weak tongue lateralization or inadequate lip closure
For self-regulation at the table, use proprioceptive input and deep breathing.
To promote engagement for children with impaired eyesight or cerebral damage, develop touch, auditory, and smell senses.
Encourage carryover at home by educating parents and other caregivers.
