Reflex Response 2
In this class we can explore deeper listening and application to specific situations and particular needs of our clients - e.g. spasticity, balance and lack of stability, spinal issues. We incorporate Reflex Response in a variety of positions that are appropriate for treatment: Lateral, Sitting (as appropriate for wheelchair or less mobile clients), Kneeling, Standing. We illuminate the use and reason for compressions (e.g., in hypermobility: loss of sensory structure). We explore Reflex Response in Mentastics for better balance and stability, communication of the process and show the value for the client.
