Description: This book contains a collection of reproducible articles written by leaders in the field on topics related to the theories of Neuro-Developmental Treatment (NDT), which was created by Karl and Berta Bobath. Occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and physical therapists can reproduce individual handouts for parents, selecting those that are appropriate to share with a particular parent about his or her child at a specific time. Groups of topics include:
* History and theory of NDT
* Social-emotional aspects
* Posture and positioning
* Movement and touch
* Personal care
* Play and recreation
* Communication and school activities
References  are also included to help families learn more about the needs of children with disabilities, as well as the needs and roles of parents in the therapy process.
