Early Childhood Reflexes
Pre-requisites:
Course content:
A baby is born with reflexes and reactions, which belong to his "first equipment". The reflexes are planned in our genetic code and proceed in a particular order. The normal development is dependent on the building and inhibition of reflexes. The stage of the reflex activities helps the medical doctor to recognize the degree of brain maturation.
The healthy child does not come completely passive and helpless to this world. It is provided with the ability to survive, like breathing and the beating of the heart. In addition, the baby has sense organs and reflexes to support growth. These abilities can only unfold in a supporting environment. The development of the child proceeds "reactively". Besides feeding it needs warmth, body contact, a smile, love and stimulation.
Three groups of reflexes are experienced in high and low gear when they are integrated and connected. The effect of the reflexes on learning problems, behavioural and emotional problems is explored. For Brain Gym® to be 100% effective all reflexes must be integrated.
