Ways to integrate primitive reflexes into practice by assessment tools, and exercises to provide for patients. Reinforces the importance of chiropractic as it relates to primitive reflexes. An amazing description of what part of the brain is related to each reflex and how the integration process relates to the development of the child.
Gave me more knowledge on how to assess development of children, including my own.
I tested my kids and realized some areas where they could use some integration of primitive reflexes.
Yes, I would recommend this course. It was presented very well and easy to digest with all the tools needed to start implementing right away.
Thank you for continuing to find ways to help educate your colleagues.

Three takeaways about the role of primitive reflexes in neurological development are: – Understanding neurological development and the order of development can help clue us in to where things may have gone off course. – Primitive reflexes are a window into how well the nervous system is integrated and organized. – Ultimately, as chiropractors, addressing subluxation first helps lay the foundation to how the nervous is balanced and when a subluxation remains, it is harder for the brain to integrate sensory information, properly integrate reflexes, and ultimately can impact how the brain is able to learn and achieve milestones in higher centers of the brain.
This course was a great review on not just what the reflexes are and how to test for them, but on the importance in understanding foundations of neurodevelopment to better assess our young patients in practice.
This course helped deepen my ability to better communicate levels of development with parents/patients and tie together neurological organization and how altered input can alter development.
I would recommend this course to other chiropractors because it provides a strong foundational understanding of the sequence of neurological development and helps deepen insight into how primitive reflexes influence that process. It goes beyond simply identifying a reflex and learning how to test for it – there is meaningful context and clinical application that helps connect reflex patterns to overall development and patient care.

I learned about all of the primal reflexes. I learned why the primal reflexes are maintained with older children. I learned that you have to clear the nervous system, first, before giving the child exercises to integrate the primal reflexes.
Yes, it has made me a better chiropractor and even more knowledgeable about how the nervous system works and develops.
Yes, I treat many children, and I used what I learned in this class to both evaluate and treat both infants and young children.
Yes, I would definitely recommend this class to others. Courtney Neill does an excellent job explaining and teaching the primitive reflexes. The videos are great to watch over and over again, so that you can master the Primitive Reflexes.
I enjoyed learning about the primitive reflexes; it is a very interesting course!
