What are Primitive Reflexes?
At The Infinity Centre, we specialize in identifying and integrating retained reflexes, helping children overcome the challenges they present.
Primitive reflexes are critical in early development, but if retained beyond infancy, they can disrupt learning, behavior, and physical coordination
Many kids struggle with primitive reflexes and, in turn, symptoms that relate to:
Sensory Issues
Speech and language deficits
Behavioral Difficulties
Muscle Tone Lack of Development
Balance Center Disruption
Eye Tracking Dysfunctions
Learning and Cognitive Delays
Developmental Coordination Disorders
Involuntary Movements
“Most academic learning depends on basic skills becoming automatic at a physical level.”
The goal of our intensive programs at The Minnesota Infinity Neuromotor Development Center is to focus on primitive reflexes and creating the strong, sustainable neuro-motor foundations for healthful, ongoing development that supports future learning, behavior, and emotional well-being.
If you are local to the greater Twin Cities area or even outside of our local area, we would love to offer you on a complimentary phone consult with office staff to discuss ways that we can help.
We offer multi-week intensive programs.
