K-MEDI ACADEMY
Integrative Medical Approach for
Sensory Integration and Independence Solutions for People with Developmental Disabilities
Have you been viewing the behavioral issues of children with developmental disabilities merely as something to be "corrected"?
Once you understand the neuroscientific causes hidden beneath these behaviors, a completely new path toward independence begins to emerge.
This education, prepared by the K-MEDI ACADEMY at TheWellSam Korean Medicine Hospital, will be a special time to offer practical 'independence solutions' to parents and professionals based on academic evidence and clinical cases.
INTEGRATED MEDICINE
🧠 What is an Integrative Medical Approach Based on Brain Development?
The Sensory Superhighway: The Vestibular System
The human brain, particularly the vestibular system at the midbrain level, is a core system that coordinates sensation and movement. The vestibular system acts as the primary "sensory superhighway" entering our body and determines how the brain interprets and reacts to external stimuli.
This training deals with the scientific mechanism not just to suppress symptoms, but to develop the child's vestibular brain to restore emotional stability and physical control ability simultaneously.
