Neuro-Developmental Delay (NDD)
Neuro-Developmental Delay (NDD) refers to the immature functioning of the Central Nervous System. This immaturity is evidenced by the presence of primitive reflexes, the underdevelopment of postural reflexes, and various other neurological markers.
Children with NDD often struggle with attention, balance, and coordination - areas that should function automatic. When these reflexes that have not integrated or emerged at the appropriate developmental stages, it can impact the overall development of brain develops.
Each child is Unique, and NDD affects each child in different ways. Some of the most common symptoms include:
-
Emotional instability and behavior problems
-
Poor hand-eye coordination
-
Difficulties in school, especially in reading, writing, and math.
-
Anxiety and stress
-
Hypersensitivity
-
ADD/ADHD
-
Motion sickness
-
Decreased immune system
-
Inflexibility
The NDD therapy program works developmentally, addressing the lowest point where breakdown has occurred and building from there. Each child has their own developmental pattern, and our approach looks at each child individually to determine the best integration program. Our therapy does not label children, and we do not use medications. Instead, we employ research-based methods and exercises that help the reflexes function properly. Exercises that mimic the patterns of reflexes during integration can facilitate normal developmental progression, allowing the Central Nervous System to mature and focus on higher learning skills.
Common improvments seen through our program include:
-
Coordination and balance
-
Attention
-
Confidence
-
Reading, writing, and math skills
-
Behavioral issues
-
Social skills
-
Anxiety
-
Emotion regulation
-
Dyslexia symptom
-
Overall maturity
The children I have had the pleasure of working with are making astonishing changes that will set them up for a successful future. I am hopeful to help your child reach their fullest potential!
