Dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia are specific learning difficulties linked to underdeveloped brain connections and reflex retention. These challenges can be mitigated through brain repatterning techniques like Rhythmic Movement Training, which aims to improve coordination, sensory processing, and academic performance by addressing delayed developmental milestones. This holistic approach holds promising results for individuals with SPLDs.
I work to help primitive reflexes integrate, which are reflexes we are born with and should disappear by age two. If not integrated, they cause emotional, behavioral, and learning challenges. I use a gentle, movement-based therapy to reduce challenges and give the central nervous system and brain a second chance to develop typically. Interrupted development leads to challenges and our behavior and personalities are shaped by our reflex profiles. I work towards integration using movement patterns, and carefully observe my clients to assess and work on specific reflexes. It’s not magic, but it’s worth a try and has the potential to transform lives.
