How to Handle Problem Behavior with Budo DVD by Hiroki Doshin

Not Endurance, But a New Option! A DVD that will be highly useful in facilities, schools, and homes.

Conventional panic response methods suggest:

• Watch over them
• Move them to a calm space

However, challenges arise:

• It's difficult to observe when intense actions are happening
• Moving an agitated person is difficult (as pointed out by Hiroki Doushin-sensei).

Doushin-sensei is a well-known martial artist featured in magazines and on television. Through his experience of managing the panic of his son with disabilities, he realized that conventional methods alone can sometimes be insufficient.

Thus, combining martial arts knowledge and ingenuity, he developed a new panic response method that ensures no harm comes to either the individual or the supporter.

This DVD provides a thorough explanation of this new “Support Assistance Method.”

For example:

• Biting
• Scratching
• Hair-pulling, etc.

The practical techniques for dealing with these urgent issues have received high praise at welfare facilities and special needs schools across the country.

This multi-faceted approach, which goes beyond just physical handling, also delves into psychology and physiology, offering new insights.

Moreover, by strictly following the three criteria of physical restraint and combining response techniques with analysis and prevention (the traditional excellent methods), the ultimate goal is to prevent panic from occurring altogether.
