Greetings,

I am glad to share these case studies showing how innate movements can help with challenges related to cerebral palsy (CP). It is great to see how children with CP gain more core strength and postural stability by doing these simple and enjoyable movements. When we develop postural stability, we are also building mental and emotional well-being! This is shown beautifully in these brief and inspiring case studies.

Based on his experience with many children with CP, Dr. Blomberg felt strongly that children with CP need to have time on the floor doing innate movements to develop core stability. He taught that If you develop postural stability with innate rhythmic movements and reflex integration, then more upright movements--like sitting and walking--are more likely to be fluid, strong, and free of tension and compensation.

It is so rewarding to see the immense progress when using these innate neurodevelopmental movements. Please share this newsletter and if you have not joined the Brain and Sensory Foundations course, this is a great time to jump in for transformational tools that work for all ages and skill levels.

Best wishes,

Sonia

PT Assistant Says: "It’s Hard to Believe" the Huge Impact of Reflex Integration This child's improved balance brought an unexpected benefit: increased focus and engagement with those around her because she now worries less about her physical safety. Thank you to R.M., Physical Therapy Assistant, for submitting this case study.
