Signs and Symptoms of Abnormal Primitive Reflexes Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex (TLR)

Primitive reflexes develop during uterine life. They should be fully present at birth and are gradually inhibited by higher centres in the brain during the first 6 to 12 months of post-natal life. If they are activated by minor stimuli in the environment at a later age, they can interfere with the development of more complex skills.

Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex (TLR)

Inhibition of the TLR is a gradual process involving the maturation of other systems. It should be completed by three and a half years of age. If it persists beyond this time, it is sometimes associated with:

Postural problems, specifically hyper- or hypo-tonus (muscle tone) Tendency to walk on the toes Poor balance History of motion sickness Orientation and spatial difficulties Oculo-motor problems Visual-perceptual problems

So what would one do to encourage maturation etc?
