This introductory course to OPT (Oral Placement Therapy)is the foundation for TalkTools training and is integrated throughout all of our courses. OPT is a type of oral-motor therapy that targets specific movements needed for speech and feeding. The "3 parts" of OPT are: auditory and visual sensory systems COMBINED WITH tactile -- and propioceptive -- sensory systems. TalkTools training applies a unique, hierarchical approach to OPT, focused on a measurable, results-driven path for both therapists and clients across all ages and diagnoses with the goal of:
speech clarity
improved feeding
independence
improved QUALITY OF LIFE
This interactive, hands-on course includes highly motivating activities targeting the abdomen, velum, jaw, lips and tongue. Techniques learned can be readily implemented across many therapy environments -- private practices, hospitals, schools and home.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will be able to appropriately assess oral placement/feeding/speech problems based on muscle systems.
Participants will be able to integrate hierarchies for motor dissociation and grading (jaw-lips-tongue).
Participants will be able to plan programs of therapeutic intervention to address physiological and motor-based speech disorders.
Participants will be able to apply at least 10 new therapy techniques.
Participants will be able to properly use oral placement techniques to improve individual speech clarity and production.
