This episode is all about treating primitive reflexes. I am very excited that awareness about primitive reflexes has exploded over the last few years. More and more parents and professionals are becoming aware of how they impact development and they are starting look at diagnoses like ADHD and dyslexia through this developmental lens. While this awareness is amazing, I am concerned about the different "treatments" that I have seen pop up online. Usually these are videos or blog posts giving parents oversimplified exercises to try with their children. This episode dives into what parents should look for in an effective treatment plan and also gives recourses for professionals who are wanting to expand their education.
I did my post-graduate training at the Institute of Neuro-Physiological Psychology. They are both a school and a research institution and have the most in-depth education on treating primitive reflexes that I have found.
If you want more in-depth information on primitive reflexes check out the book Attention Balance and Coordination the A.B.C. of Learning Success. It is one of the main textbooks that INPP uses in their post-graduate degree program.
