The Advanced Bobath Course in Barcelona - Day 3
The first morning in Spain that I needed the alarm! But as
the scientists say, you need sleep to learn. While you are sleeping the things
and skills you’ve learned get time to become refined. Anyway, I think the large
amount of new knowledge and a huge expertise what I've had seen in demo’s is worth it.

In the course we had third demostration with the young
guy who has been there everyday with Lynne. It is hard to describe, but there has been lots of differentiation with his posture and
movement patterns in only these three days. He said today that he had also gone sleep after yesterdays
treatment. Good? -Yes! In the first day he couldn’t move his index finger but today after
treatment it was possible. The hand wasn’t moving his trunk as in the beginning and he could now move trunk without arm moving. It was quite interesting to watch
how Lynne worked with the patient. She couldn’t get him to learn proximally a
new pattern to move if there was problem distally. And after that she
gradually, and with the help of other therapists, helped him to get link from
the left leg to the trunk and from the trunk to the hand. It was quite
succesfull treatment session but took 1,5 hours. After therapy Lynne said that this
kind of patient needs intensive therapy to achieve the best results. She would
treat him 5 days a week and 1,5-2 hours a day. Now he has 1 hour treatment once
a week. ”Not enough”, said Lynne. ”But that’s life”, she said also.

Hasta manana :)
