Primitive Reflex Testing for Parents

Primitive Reflexes are foundational for the growth of the brain.

“Babies are supposed to outgrow their primitive reflexes by the end of the first year. However, in some children they live longer, this can throw off the timing for brain development and is an early symptom of issues to come” -Dr. Robert Melillo.

Is Your Child's Development on Track?

Do you suspect that there may be a gap in your child’s development or that they are not functioning at their full potential? It’s natural to worry about your child’s progress, especially if they seem delayed in meeting their milestones or are underachieving in school.

Common Concerns in Child Development

  • Many parents notice various signs that their child may be struggling, such as:
    • Social and Emotional Challenges: Difficulty in forming relationships, emotional regulation issues, or being a fussy eater.
    • Physical and Motor Skill Issues: Thumb sucking, bedwetting, clumsiness, awkward motor skills, poor eye-hand coordination, or difficulty riding a bike.
    • Postural and Muscle Concerns: Poor muscle tone, postural issues, toe walking, or slumping while sitting.

What Parents Often Report

The parents I work with frequently express concerns that something seems to be missing in their child’s progress. These issues can manifest in various aspects of their daily lives, affecting both their physical and mental well-being.

Introducing Primitive Reflex Testing for Parents

Primitive Reflex Testing for Parents is a specialised program where I teach you how to screen test and integrate retained primitive reflexes. This program is designed to help your child improve their motor, social, and daily functioning skills, allowing them to reach their full potential.

Understanding Your Child’s Brain Development

Once you understand what is happening in your child’s brain, you can learn how to best support them at home. Primitive reflexes are foundational for brain growth, and retained reflexes can lead to various issues depending on their severity, timing, and cause.

The Impact of Retained Primitive Reflexes

Retained primitive reflexes can contribute to struggles related to:

  • Developmental Disorders: ADHD, sensory processing disorder, autism, and learning disabilities.
  • Physical and Sensory Issues: Coordination, balance, sensory perceptions, and fine motor skills.
  • General Well-Being: Sleep, immunity, energy levels, impulse control, concentration, and social, emotional, and academic learning.

By addressing these retained reflexes, you can help your child overcome these challenges and thrive in their development.
