Primitive and Postural Reflex Motor Programme
At Hemispheres we are all qualified Occupational Therapists and are therefore able to support and advise around functional skills. The focus of our therapy is directed at targeting the immaturities in your child’s Central Nervous System (CNS) so the everyday skills can be taught with greater success. We have over 20 years of experience working directly with reflexes and feel that this approach makes the most difference.
What does the treatment process look like?
You will be prescribed a programme of movements and activities after your assessment and each review appointment. We recommend that the movements are completed at home or school for 5 consecutive days, the programme should take no longer than 10 - 15 minutes each day, with a 2 day rest within the week.
How often is my child's programme reviewed?
This can vary from one child to another, we aim to review your child's movement programme every 4 weeks. For some children who need a little longer on a programme we can extend the time between review appointments up to 3 months.
How to I remember what my child's exercise are?
Hemispheres has a video library of most exercises. Each child is allocated a personal folder on the website into which your therapist will place the videos for you to view at home. The link to the video’s last 30 days.
Home Movement Programme - Primitive and Postural Reflex Motor Programme
This is our trademark intervention programme and the one we feel makes the most difference.
Follow one of our specific programmes of movement in the comfort of your own home. It takes less than 15 minutes per day to provide the right stimulation to your child to help make real changes in their reflexes and connected skills.
This treatment programme requires you to attend for just 1 session in clinic per month, where your specialist occupational therapist will review the progress, your child has made and upgrade their movement programme for the following month. This is a cost-effective way to seek support, advice, and help, so you and your child can be active participants in helping your child improve.
Package includes:
- A single 45 - 60 minute appointment session per month.
- A specific programme of movements to stimulate or inhibit identified reflexes.
- Access to your own online video library so you can view movements from home.
- Email support between sessions if you need additional support.
- Sessions can be extended to every 3 months - depending on individual needs.
