\n\t\t\tThe 8 Important Primitive Reflexes\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t

Primitive reflexes are the reactions that develop in the brain stem before birth. They are a set of involuntary movements that help the baby with positioning in the womb, birthing, first breaths, feeding, etc. Most of these reflexes will fade through the first year of life as higher functions\u00a0of the brain and muscles control develop.<\/p>\t\t\n\t

If any of these reflexes remain past 12 months they are considered Retained Primitive Reflexes, and they can be a problem.<\/p>\n

Research shows that retained primitive reflexes have been found to cause neurological underdevelopment in areas that can affect learning, behavior, development, vision, and sensory processing. These remaining reflexes often go unnoticed in older children and adults, unless you know what to look for.<\/p>\n\t\t
