Maude Le Roux, OTR/L is back to provide her annual 5-day sensory tour to the pediatric community at large within the time zone of Johannesburg, South Africa. It is important for Maude to provide clinicians with up-to-date information regarding development, sensory processing as well as intervention related to neural integration. Our brain is neuro-plastic, and it can change, no matter the age. Join Maude on all 5 days or only on the days of interest as she adds to your arsenal of knowledge and your toolkit as a therapist. Therapists, psychologists and educators have joined us from across the globe over the years and discussion as a global community is powerful, flavorful, and thought provoking. We must keep forming our clinical mind, keep reflecting on what works and does not work. There is no “one size fits all”, only individual differences that drives us into a new place of being as critical thinkers and providing therapy with the developing brain in mind. Join us as Maude makes older topics come alive in a new way, looking at current research and evidence-based practice from different lenses. Fall in love again with the power of what we are capable of in changing the lives of our clients in their occupational functioning and wellbeing!
