We are now living in a world of electronics and computers, and many people are more familiar with this than their own bodies. With the therapies I use, I talk a lot about the circuits in our body, and when you have pain or learning problems, it could be because the circuits between the body and […]

What are reflexes and how do they work? There are many genetically programmed circuits running between our bodies and brains which are needed for protection, survival, growth, and development. These circuits are called Primitive (or Primary) Reflexes. These set the stage for moving our bodies, communication, and learning new things. These reflex circuits start developing […]

If you did not have neuro-sensory-motor reflexes, you would not be alive. There are many genetically programmed reflex circuits running between our bodies and brains which are needed for protection, survival, growth, and development. There are about 21 of these circuits called Primitive (or Primary) Reflexes, some start developing and working in utero or […]

Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) is a clinical label for people (adults and children) who have abnormal behavioral responses to “normal” sensory input such as sound and touch. What is abnormal behavior? This is behavior that is an extreme negative response to a situation, way beyond that of a “normal reaction” in others. A child is not doing it to […]

Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD, formerly known as “sensory integration dysfunction”) is a clinical label for people who have abnormal behavioral responses to “normal” sensory input such as sound and touch. Each of us has our own unique way of responding to sensations. As children, we “teach” our parents what we like or don’t like, and keep […]

We are all sensory beings who rely on our senses to be able to interact with the world. Sensory Integration (AKA Sensory Processing) is a concept that has taken me years to understand, and still I am learning. It is, at it’s most basic level, the efficient communication of circuits between your 8+ senses and […]
