Parent / Carer Training: Postural Management
About this Event

You are invited to attend a free face to face parent and carer information / training session to find out more about 24 Hour Postural Management and the benefits of good posture for your child.

24 hour Postural Management is used with children who have a movement disorder which impacts on their ability to sit, stand or walk, such as, although not limited to Cerebral Palsy, Rett Syndrome, Muscular Dystrophy. It is used to reduce positioning problems as children grow and can work by actively reducing unwanted postures and movements. By introducing 24 hour postural management at the right time we can help to facilitate more typical postures throughout the child’s entire day while engaging in everyday activities.

Children who have difficulty moving because of muscle tightness or floppiness and are at risk of developing complications of the hips and of the spine. If left unchecked longer term this can lead to pain, changes in body shape, breathing and digestive difficulties and the possible need for surgery. The use of postural management activities and equipment can help to reduce the risk of these complications occurring.

There will be handouts on the day and the opportunity for discussion & questions with the therapists.

The event will be held in the training room at orchard Brae School and will run from 10am to 2pm with a break for lunch. There are no facilities for purchasing food or drinks so please bring a packed lunch/snack/drink with you. Tea and coffee will be provided.

There is parking at Orchard Brae School and is free in the streets nearby.
