Postural Management: A Problem-Solving Masterclass

“The Small Changes Can Make the Biggest Impact”

This 90-minute webinar provided practical postural management strategies for occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and healthcare professionals

Does your client’s posture keep changing and you’re not sure why? Struggling to improve sitting tolerance for socially isolated clients? Finding it difficult to set realistic, achievable postural goals? You’re not alone – and this webinar will give you the practical problem-solving tools you need.

Many healthcare professionals can identify postural problems, but knowing how to solve them effectively is where the real challenge lies. In this expert-led session, discover how small, strategic adjustments can transform clinical outcomes and dramatically improve your clients’ quality of life.

Why This Webinar is Essential:

• Learn from a master problem-solver: Joanne McConnell (Clinical Team Leader, Worcester Wheelchair Service, with 33+ years expertise in specialist seating and posture) will share her proven assessment and intervention strategies for the most common – and most challenging – postural presentations.
• Practical solutions you can use immediately: No theory-heavy lectures here. Jo demonstrated real-world problem-solving approaches that you can apply in your very next assessment.
• Understand the ‘why’ behind postural changes: Learn to identify root causes of postural deterioration – from muscle tone changes to equipment mismatch – so you can intervene effectively rather than just managing symptoms.
• Master goal-setting for complex cases: Discover how to set realistic, measurable objectives that motivate clients and demonstrate meaningful progress, especially for those with poor sitting tolerance.
• See the solutions in action: 🪑 A live equipment demonstration showed how small seating adjustments create significant postural improvements and enhance sitting tolerance.

What You’ll Master:

✅ Root Cause Analysis – Systematic approach to identifying why postural presentations change and what’s really driving the deterioration

✅ Evidence-Based Problem-Solving – Practical strategies for addressing common postural challenges including asymmetry, pelvic positioning, head control, and trunk stability

✅ Goal-Setting Excellence – How to agree realistic, achievable objectives with clients and families that lead to genuine improvements in function and quality of life

✅ Poor Sitting Tolerance Solutions – Proven interventions to gradually increase tolerance, reduce pain, and enable greater social interaction and participation

✅ The Power of Small Changes – Learn which minor adjustments deliver major impact – and avoid over-complicating your interventions

✅ Live Demonstrations 🪑 – See postural solutions in action and learn exactly what to look for when specifying equipment

✅ Q&A Session – Listen to some of the toughest postural puzzles and the expert guidance provided

This webinar is essential if you:

• Feel stuck when clients’ posture deteriorates and you’re unsure what to try next
• Struggle to set meaningful postural goals that clients and families understand
• Work with clients with poor sitting tolerance affecting their quality of life
• Want proven problem-solving frameworks rather than trial-and-error approaches
• Need to justify equipment changes with clear clinical reasoning
