Primitive Reflexes During Infancy

Description

Primitive Reflexes develop during gestation and infancy. These reflexes should be integrated by the central nervous system during the 1st few months of life. However, children with ADD/ADHD, autism, developmental delay, sensory disorders, and vision and hearing challenges may have an incomplete integration of one or more primitive reflexes. This training will explain the 6 reflexes (when they appear in stages of life, purpose of the reflex, symptoms, how to test a child, and what exercise to implement into a daily routine in order to those integrate reflexes).
