Primitive Reflexes are foundational for the growth of the brain.

This is the best place to start when paving the way for proper brain development.

This is a self-guided course in which I teach parents exactly how to INTEGRATE their child’s primitive reflexes.

Primitive reflexes are foundational for the growth of the brain. As the foundation is laid, specific movements develop and the sensory systems and higher brain centers are able to integrate.

If these processes do not happen at the right time, or in the right order during infancy, reflexes can remain unintegrated or retained. This causes stress and interferes with movement control, coordination, sensory perception & processing, visual function, emotions, memory, reading, learning and behaviour.

In this course I teach you how to lay down the foundation of the nervous system by integrating the core primitive reflexes that are most associated with the sensory systems.

Research shows that children who struggle with learning, social skills & language have unintegrated (retained) primitive reflexes.

Once reflexes are integrated, the "gaps" in their development improve bringing long term results. The foundation of the nervous system must be strong before higher brain centres can mature. This simply means that once reflexes & sensory systems integrate, our "thinking brain", needed for higher-level functioning, is better able to do its job.

Do you suspect that there is a ‘gap’ in your child’s development or that they just aren’t reaching their full potential?

Do you worry that your child finds learning difficult? Perhaps they struggle with social relationships or emotional regulation? Or they have had a suspected or formal neurodevelopmental diagnosis? (ADHD, Dyslexia, Sensory processing disorder etc…)

Then this is the starting point for your family!

Join me in this mini course where I will cover the following:

The Core Primitive Reflexes

Explore the purpose behind each reflex & associated symptoms of retention. Learn how they are essential for optimal brain & body development.    

Timing of Reflex emergence & integration

Primitive Reflexes overlap in emergence & integration during infancy & help each other integrate. If one reflex is intact, its stimulation may help another reflex integrate. How they overlap in emergence & integration is illustrated in this mini course.

Integration

How to integrate each primitive reflex accurately with step-by-step written & video instructions. Filling these ‘gaps’ in development prior to balancing the brain is the most significant step in transforming your child’s brain. 

Neurodevelopmental Movements

Neurodevelopmental movements & visual exercises are included. These help to actively integrate reflexes through full body movement & are essential for children with dysfunction & those who struggle with cross-body movements. Visual exercises also start to stimulate the sensory systems.  

Core & Postural Stabilisation
One huge contributing factor to children who experience delays is low tone. Core & postural stability are equally important & also help integrate reflexes faster by giving the brain additional input. Without proper control from our core, the spine can’t send appropriate signals to the brain for processing. The postural system is also the foundation of the vestibular & visual systems, so to make gains in these areas the postural system must be stable.  

Is your child’s brain balanced?

Brain Hemispheric balance is an essential part of Untapped Brains. It is known that the 2 brain hemispheres have completely different jobs & control different types of thinking, movement & processing.

Both brain hemispheres need to work in a balanced way to create the optimal environment for academic achievement, behavioral control, sensory processing & overall function. Learning, behavior & movement challenges are a direct result of a disconnect or an imbalance between the 2 hemispheres.

Therefore, to provide more clarity, I’ve included a brain balance questionnaire to help you identify if your child has an imbalance & to determine the severity of it.

Following this, should you wish to continue with the Untapped Brains Signature Program: Brain Reconnections, in order to promote a well connected, balanced brain, you will receive a special participants discount.

We are all born with Primitive Reflexes.  

At birth, primitive reflexes are present to assist with survival. Most develop in utero.  These are automatic movement patterns that are designed to keep the newborn alive and help with development through infancy.  

The kicker here is that these reflexes are not supposed to stay forever.

If a primitive reflex is retained – that is still present after 12 months of age, certain challenges may arise.  

Each reflex comes with its own set of movements & leads to new & different developmental milestones.  

If a specific reflex is retained, it may affect a specific area of development.  

Skills affected by retained primitive reflexes can include reasoning, attention, planning, organising, processing speed, emotional regulation to name a few.  

SYMPTOMS OF RETAINED PRIMITIVE REFLEXES CAN INCLUDE:


Car Sickness Highly Strung Behaviour
Fidgety (ants in the pants) Bed Wetting
Anxiety Lack of eye contact
Hypersensitivities / sensory issues
 Poor balance & coordination
Learning struggles Processing disorders
Fight/flight Low muscle tone
Eye tracking difficulties Toe walking
Easily fatigued Irrational fears
Frequent tantrums Low tone
Poor attention & focus Developmental Delays

The presence of these symptoms among others represents a disorganisation within the brain.  This leaves the child unable to regulate their mind and body because there is a disconnection between their brain & body.  This is referred to as a “functional disconnection” by Dr Robert Melillo.  Re-connecting the networks in the brain is possible thanks to neuroplasticity – the ability to change the brain).  

The primitive reflex integrations course is the first & most significant step in transforming your child’s brain.

All families who choose to participate in this course, will have the opportunity to contact me to discuss their child’s unique case & future steps should they wish to do so.

Completion of this course will also give you discounted access to the full Brain Reconnections Program.

I look forward to working with you & your child.
