    My takeaways: The importance of correcting subluxations prior to reflex integration work and Atlas is a hub for a lot of proprioceptive receptors which skills are associated with reflexes and brain structures.

    The importance of correcting subluxations prior to reflex integration work atlas is a hub for a lot of proprioceptive receptors which skills are associated with reflexes and brain structures.

    I am going to correlate skill development with brain structure development in a more in-depth way that I have done in the past.

    I would recommend this class to others; it has a lot of good information that is important for clinical practice.

    Thank you for all the information.

    My takeaway is that any class I have taken I always find good information that serves either as a reminder or good clinical pearls.

    It increases my certainty and clarity about working with infants and children.

    Doing a quick assessment of the reflexes before an adjustment and then seeing them gone after.

    Yes, I would recommend it. Even though taught before, it is always a great reminder and helps with your certainty with kiddos and other pediatric professionals.

    It was a good class.

    My three takeaways:
    1. Correcting vertebral subluxations is the most important thing that we do as Chiropractors, ensuring good body-brain communication is essential for a developing nervous system.
    2. We need to be aware of signs that a nervous system is not coping or developing as it should be and this is where primitive reflexes come in.
    3. Developing a good exam flow is really helpful to identify issues but allows you to efficiently assess what is happening.

    It has added to my knowledge to help keep looking after the children in our community to develop into their best possible selves and it has given me ideas to make my flow in the office better.

    I think a big learning was to focus on the subluxation first. Too often we want to jump into giving exercises/homework for retained reflexes when a child comes into the office for primitive reflex issues, but we need to make sure that the nervous system is clear and functioning at its best first. It is good to have little reminders to bring you back to core principles!!

    Yes, I would recommend this course. I think it would be good for those who are new to primitive reflexes but also have something to offer to those who have been learning about them already – you can always learn something new.
