Polyvagal Theory and Clinical Application for Babies in the Fourth Trimester
2 day class
|
In 1992, Stephen Porges presented a model of how the Autonomic Nervous System regulates our internal and external environment. He proposed the Polyvagal Theory (PVT) to explain how mammals have a social engagement function which promotes safety and ability to feel calm and engage in daily life activities. For babies, the autonomic nervous system is a vulnerable and immature system. This can impact baby's ability to calm, bond/attach, be comfortable in different positions, and can also cause gastrointestinal disturbances. This two day class covers the highly complex and comprehensive theory in simple words and diagrams and provides direct clinical applications to babies in ways that not only make sense, but advance your skills as a practitioner. ANS function is a hidden factor in helping babies and parents connect and grow together in healthy and satisfying ways. Michelle has been studying and using the PVT since 2000.
