Move to See, See to Move: Linking Primitive Reflex Integration and Functional Vision

Description

As pediatric therapists, we know that strong foundations matter. Primitive and postural reflexes are the building blocks that support the development of coordination, balance, motor control, and, importantly, learned visual skills. These learned visual skills, in turn, drive how children move, learn, and interact with their world.
This interactive and comprehensive course explores the powerful connection between primitive and postural reflexes and the development of efficient motor and functional vision skills. It is ideal for therapists who want to build skills from the ground up, reignite progress when development stalls, and discover fresh, evidence-based strategies to accelerate outcomes for children with sensory-motor deficits, dyspraxia, developmental coordination disorder, and other neurodevelopmental challenges. Through the presentation of evidence-based research, real-world case studies, and guided practice, participants will learn to:
Functionally assess primitive and postural reflexes to identify neuromotor maturity.
Screen for visual efficiency deficits
Create effective, individualized treatment plans that support reflex integration and vision-based movement.
