Ear, Nose & Throat Disorders in Children & Teenagers

Some children are plagued with recurrent ear, nose and throat problems during early life development of the immune system. Parents are often worried about possible consequent longer term effects (eg hearing and speech). They may also be uneasy regarding repeated antibiotic use, not to mention the time off school.
In this highly practical workshop, we make complex cranio-facial mechanics accessible and applicable as a treatment modality, as well as providing an excellent understanding of ENT problems in infants, children and teenagers.

Emphasis is on evaluation, palpation, treatment and exercise rather than in depth anatomy & physiology which participants can study at their leisure.
