Rhythmic Movements and Reflex Integration for Helping Autism

Parents, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and other professionals consistently report that integrating primitive reflexes and applying rhythmic movements helps with the sensory processing issues, physical pain, sleep challenges, emotional dysregulation, and anxiety that commonly accompany autism (ASD). See inspiring case studies with children and adults with autism.

All case studies are written by students of the Brain and Sensory Foundations First Level course.
