SLEEP WHISPERER

In this case study, I received some wonderful client feedback. For a child that was restless and struggling with sleep issues, we supported her parasympathetic nervous system through reflex integration work, allowing for meaningful change and thankfully, more peaceful slumber.

"Gravy" on Top!

In this case study, a client reflects on ‘added benefits’ to our reflex integration work. Work that we put in to address behavioral challenges in the classroom unlocked meaningful connections between upper and lower body as well as her visual and vestibular system. This led to an improved and more coordinated athletic performance.

MICHAEL HAD A BREAKTHROUGH!

In this case study, the client’s immature limbic system, or emotional center, resulted in challenges assessing the safety of social interactions depicted on screen. Our reflex integration work helped establish more secure patterns in coping with fear. The client was able to build stronger neural networks through his safety and security system.

IMPROVING FOCUS, ATTENTION, EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING

As older children confront end-of-semester exams and the challenge of juggling preparation for multiple tasks at once, we get a glimpse at their ability to focus, memorize and perform under pressure. By incorporating movement and reflex integration work into test prep, those executive functioning skills are strengthened.
