Digit-Sucking Children
This is a video recording of the fantastic presentation given by Rosemarie A. Van Norman, C.O.M. at the Mid-Winter Conference in Las Vegas.
Rose's 47 minute lecture about the problem of digit-sucking was packed with important and useful information, including research studies and many before-and-after photos, highlighting the ground-breaking work by Orofacial Myologists in this critical area of child development.
For over 30 years Rosemarie A. Van Norman has helped children eliminate their digit-sucking habit- a habit that can cascade into other orofacial and social problems as well. Her analysis of this problem is invaluable to any health-care professional dealing with a child population.
Even if you were lucky enough to see the presentation in Las Vegas, you'll want to own this DVD since now you'll be able to comfortably review the over 50 slides that were presented on-screen. This DVD will also act as a valuable tool in educating your referral sources, especially pediatricians and dentists- showing them how digit-sucking negatively affects their patients and how Myofunctional Therapy can eliminate or greatly reduce this serious problem.
Contact Licia Coceani at licia2004@comcast.net or 310-823-9812 to order your DVD today. Just $25!
