What is Neurodevelopmental Sequencing? Barb Hoogenboom

Product Description

What is Neurodevelopmental Sequencing? – Learn Developmental Sequencing – How Does Developmental Sequencing Help in Training?

You’re familiar with the idea of neurodevelopmental sequencing, and how we originally learn to move as babies and toddlers. But do you know when these sequences occur, in what order and how to use this idea in your corrective programming? In this short talk, physical therapy professor Barb Hoogenboom outlines the normal order of movement learning, and tells how she uses this concept in rehabilitation.

“In the developmental sequence, all developmental postures are gradually mastered by the developing infant or the child prior to standing. One of the biggest mistakes I think we make in rehabilitation is to put people on their feet too early—to not make them master things that would occur in lesser or lower developmental postures.”~ Barb Hoogenboom
