The Vestibular System And It’s Role In Child Development – Full Day Seminar in Central London with Dr. Omer Hirsh

The vestibular system is a complex sensory system that maintains balance, and spatial orientation and coordinates eye and head movements. Its role in child development is fundamental, influencing motor skills, sensory integration, cognitive abilities, and emotional regulation.

Activities that provide vestibular stimulation play a crucial role in fostering healthy development and supporting children in various aspects of learning and growth. For children facing vestibular challenges, targeted interventions can help improve their functional abilities and overall well-being. Rehabilitation strategies aim to alleviate symptoms, improve balance, and enhance performance in various activities, while testing procedures aid in diagnosing vestibular disorders to facilitate targeted interventions.

Location

The event will take place in the Hilton Euston Hotel in London on the 11th of February from 9.00 to 17.00.

Tea and coffee, refreshments, and lunch are included at no extra cost.
