What happens when a patient has a cerebral vascular accident, closed head injury or anoxia? The symptom demonstrated may be eye misalignment and/or spastic muscle tone. The symptoms resemble primitive reflex patterns. Do you brace and manage symptoms or treat the cause? When one treats the cause, the symptoms are easier to treat and faster to remedy through neuroplasticity techniques.

1. Distinguish motor changes based upon neurological central nervous system injuries and degenerative diagnosis. 
2. Demonstrate new skills to unlock significant relief of tremor activity in a patient with anoxic brain injury and cerebral vascular accident.
3. Analyze the influence of the central nervous system post CVA to determine what layer of the brain is active and how to reduce symptoms by treating the causal source.

Central Nervous System Injuries

• CNS anatomy
• Relate motor function change with injury and degenerative diseases

Relief of Tremor Activity

• Etiology of tremors
• New skills for unlocking significant relief of tremor activity with anoxic brain injury and cerebral vascular accident
• How to treat tremors in the clinic and home setting

Rewire connections to Improve Motor Function

• Influence of CNS post CVA
• Determine which layer of the brain is active 
• Reduce symptoms by treating the causal source instead of just the symptoms
