Gail (from this list) recommended a local Sensory Integration Therapist/OT who identified two primitive reflexes in this last Thursday. One being the startle reflex, apparently this is why he is hyper-extended - he still walks like a little baby just learning to walk. She doesn't use brushing but we have exercises to help him loose this reflex and have learned how to stop stimulating it. We are doing 7 weeks of therapy with her, if we don't see any progress then we'll give the chap you mentioned a go. Windsor isn't too far

>>>Its interesting that so many types of practitioners are addressing this retained immature reflexes thing - 's McTimoney lady does it for her Joe, the Osteopath talked about it when we took Sam to NOT sit still enough AGAIN for Cranial Osteo - so he did some McTimoney on Sam.

We go again Monday to try again - I want to hold him down and the Osteo won't do it if I do - I have heard so many times that once these kids have the hands laid they can fell the difference and then love it - I need to get Sam to a place where he loves it LOL

He laid on couch so nicely but Osteo had given him the remote for the couch and he sussed that in no time and kept lifting his head as he propelled himself up and down on the table - arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. He wasn't anxious he just had better reasons not to keep his head still...............

Interested to learn of the exercises and whether they help your little man
