Educating providers in dysfunctional reflexes
We specialize in teaching medical professionals about primitive reflexes. A primitive reflex is a specific motor pattern that reacts to a sensory stimulus. The stimulus and reaction are carried from the peripheral nerves in the body to the brain to be processed.
Development and posture are attained naturally by allowing the baby to move against gravity in tummy time into rolling, army crawling, transitioning into sitting, crawling, and finally, standing/walking. When reflexes emerge and integrate on time, development meets all milestones, including sensory, motor, language, emotional regulation, and cognitive tasks. Over a lifetime, reflexes work for us to make life easy. The more reflexes integrated for the adult, the less they have to think about their daily life and the more they get to live it!
What we teach
You will learn what a primitive reflex looks like and what to do when that reflex is dysfunctional. Structures and tissues often entrap nerves; we allow you to use your clinical applications to allow for freedom of function for the nerve and, in turn, the reflex. Our courses will greatly enhance your current understanding of primitive reflex integration.
