Do you see clients with retained primitive reflexes who also have sensory integration issues?
Are many of their senses under sensitive or over sensitive?
Primitive reflex maturation and sensory processing cannot be separated. Inefficient sensory intake occurs when we either take in too much or too little information. This is then compounded with immature retained reflex responses. The results are not being able to react, behave or learn in meaningful, appropriate ways. For the most positive outcomes, it is crucial that retained reflexes and sensory integration are balanced together. In this presentation Claire will share research, personal knowledge and experience in working with retained reflexes and sensory integration dysfunction. Learn which Brain Gym® movements mature and integrates each of the senses and retained reflexes.
