Neuro Developmental Therapy

Neuro Developmental Therapy works with children and their families with development, learning, behavioural and social/emotional difficulties. The treatment programme is a non-invasive, drug-free, ‘Neural Stimulation Programme’ that treats the underlying causes of ‘Developmental Delay’ due to ‘Retained Primitive Reflexes’ and therefore enables the child to reach their full potential.

What are Primitive Reflexes?

In the womb and early stages of life, we are equipped with a number of reflexes that not only aid the birthing process, but also serve to ensure the survival and safety of the newborn into early infancy; eg. grasping (to hold objects), rooting (to find nipple) and sucking (to feed), etc. These Primitive Reflexes are instinctive, involuntary reflex movements that require no thought involvement and are directed from the brainstem.
