REFLEX INTEGRATION TECHNIQUE
All body movements are based on and supported by “primitive reflexes” that we are born with. Injury/ Illness or trauma can alter the ability of these reflexes to support mature stability and movement.
Techniques used by our therapists work to re-establish the ability of these reflexes to work automatically without our thinking about them.
Therapists at Busy Bodies study the Masgutova method of reflex integration.
