Inhoud
Physiotherapists can improve their work by understanding the dual effect of patients’ physiological problems on their psychological condition and the effect of the psychological condition on their physical problems. In this workshop the participants will learn to better understand this 2-directions connection between mind and body and also how to influence it. They will learn cognitive behavioral principles as the background for this mind-body connection and a variety of stress management techniques to affect this connection and to improve health.

The participants will be introduced to some possible physical impacts of common psychological disorders such as anxiety disorders, psycho-somatic symptoms and depression, and less common disorders such as autism, psychosis and conversion syndromes. The impact of behavioral disturbances and attention deficit disorder will be discussed as well.
The main part of this workshop will be the learning of actual techniques that the physiotherapist can implement into his work. These techniques are a result of an integrated view, combining physiological, cognitive behavioral and attentional elements, into a simple stress management model. The techniques are short, simple and fun, aimed to improve the child commitment to be a partner with the physiotherapist in the process of healing.
The purpose is to improve the child’s ability to accept his physical condition and take the responsibility to improve it. The child will learn these skills by becoming committed to the treatment and learn actual cognitive, physiological and attentional techniques to improve his physical and mental state.
There will be three parts in the workshop:
1. Understanding the mind-body connection in different psychological and other disorders.
2. Describing the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy combined with psychophysiological principles (including biofeedback) and mindfulness, in a new novel way, adapted for children.
3. Demonstrating and practicing relevant stress management techniques adapted to the special physiotherapist-child (patient) relationship.
