Adult Specialization Track
Adult Specialization
Every client presents to you with differences in medical status, cognitive and linguistic status, multi-system deficits, environmental issues and support systems. As with any treatment modality, a one-size-fits-all approach to your patients is a terrible idea.
Learn how to individualize clinical application of the IM from 18 through the geriatric age range. Participants will learn the skills necessary to adapt to often fluctuating clinical presentations with individualized treatment approaches that are engaging and motivating to the adult patient. We also take into consideration that the IM will be used at the inpatient bedside, the therapy gym or at home assisted by a caregiver. We’ll show you how the IM is the most adaptable tool you’ll carry in your therapy tool kit.

Pediatric Specialization Track
Pediatric Specialization
As with any therapy, optimal treatment outcomes are more easily attained when there are appropriate accommodations for age, developmental level, group dynamics and environmental factors. IM’s individualized treatment approaches are engaging and motivating to the pediatric client.
IM’s entertaining, game-like interface and easy-to-understand feedback will have your pediatric patient checking their scores after each exercise and reaching for new levels and rewards.
The IM allows you to increase the challenge and difficulty of the patient’s task while their focus is on interacting with the IM. Our Advanced Pediatric Best Practice Course teaches IM’s clinical application from infancy through age 18.
