TMR Tots – Changing Lives Healing With Ease
TMR Tots – Changing Lives Healing With Ease
1 hour
Overview
This webinar will provide an overview of the TMR Tots concept typically presented in two 16-hour training sessions. TMR Tots is an innovative approach utilizing traditional physical therapy strategies with an assessment & treatment system to incorporate into the therapist's current practice.
Systematically identifying key areas of limited mobility and postural alignment at the beginning of a session provides the therapist with a care plan to remove restrictions which prevent access to optimal skill achievement and ability to participate.
The TMR process of Release Organize & Activate matches the 5 F’s of the ICF model to engage the patient and caregivers with intervention which matches their unique ecosystem. In this session the participant will explore on themselves and a doll the impact of a limitation in range of motion in one area of the body as related to ability to participate in activities in another.
Several brief case studies will be presented to illustrate the functional change after using systematic testing, treating, and targeted therapeutic activities to reinforce improvements in postural control.
Lastly, the therapist will learn 2 basic testing/treating motions which the participant may explore with their own patients after attending the webinar.

The instructors
The Paediatric Division is a special interest group within the Canadian Physiotherapy Association. Our membership consists of clinicians from all practice settings, students, educators, researchers, physiotherapy assistants and administrators all of whom have a passion for promoting participation and enhancing the lives of children and their families. We are dedicated to provide resources and information for paediatric patients and their families to promote participation and function independence in all aspects of life.
Paediatric physiotherapists employ clinical expertise in the early detection of health problems, treatment, education and management of congenital, developmental, neuromuscular, skeletal, cardiorespiratory or acquired disorders/diseases. Paediatric physiotherapists work with children of all ages, from infants through young adulthood to promote participation and functional independence. Paediatric physiotherapists have a unique role in that they not only work with the child, but also their families in the context of their daily home, school and recreational environment.
Paediatric physiotherapists use validated outcome measures to assess the level of strength, flexibility, gross-, and fine-motor coordination and overall functional capabilities to determine participation limitations or restrictions as a result of injury, disease or disability.
Through analysis of objective assessment findings, the paediatric physiotherapist uses evidence-based treatment interventions specifically tailored to the client and their family's goals. Treatment interventions focus on improving gross and fine motor skills, balance and coordination, strength and endurance, as well as cognitive and sensory processing/integration.
