Jessica Hunt & Angela Mansolillo – Treating Complex Feeding & Swallowing Issues in Children: Targeted Sensory, Motor, and Behavior Techniques for Dysphagia, Autism, Cerebral Palsy and other Developmental Delays

…Do you work with special needs children who cry or scream, throw food, refuse to sit at a table and eat, or refuse to try new foods?

…Do you know children who eat only a limited number of foods or only eat the same food over and over?

…Is going to a restaurant out of the question for the families you work with?

By the time you see a family dealing with complex feeding issues, they’re often in severe distress and extreme dysfunction. They’re exasperated and frustrated from bribing their child to eat, and they have read every parenting blog on how to help a “picky eater.” They just want their child to get the nutrients they need to thrive.

After working with families and complex feeding issues for over 17 years, I’ve discovered the interventions that work. And now I want to show you the customized tools, strategies and interventions you need to improve treatment outcomes.

Join me for my new online course, and I’ll give you step-by-step guidance on how you can make mealtimes more peaceful and positive. Through comprehensive lessons, case studies, and video case examples, you will learn exactly what you need to do to successfully treat feeding difficulties in children with Autism, Cerebral Palsy and more.

You’ll walk away with advanced techniques to:

• Evaluate the causes of mealtime difficulties: behavior, sensory, oral motor, or a combination
• Increase range of foods, decrease food jags
• Improve jaw strength and decrease ineffective lip closure, or poor tongue lateralization
• Integrate deep breathing and proprioceptive input to address self-regulation at the table
• Increase self-regulation around feeding
• Use food play and exploration to improve food acceptance
• Educate parents and caregivers to promote carryover at home
• … and so much more

Don’t wait to join me for this top-tier training on Treating Complex Feeding & Swallowing Issues.

Yours in learning,
Jessica Hunt, OTR/L

What will I learn?

Through intriguing videos, case studies, and masterful explanation, you will learn how to apply the latest findings from research to your treatment protocols in practical, effective ways.

This intensive session will provide you the knowledge you need to:

• Evaluate how sensory processing, behavior and oral motor skills impact or interfere with each child’s ability to eat
• Role play how to implement sensory techniques during and prior to meal times to address difficulities such as not wanting to touch certain foods or sit at the table
• Implement oral motor exercises and strategies to promote feeding patterns such as rotary chewing pattern, lip closure and tongue lateralization
• Explore the misconceptions about feeding that impact special needs children
• Understand the behaviors that interfere with eating and devise strategies to address the behavior
• Support and guide parents and caregivers through often emotional or stressful meal times
