Greetings,
I love to share research and resources with you!
Here are 4 research studies connecting the primitive reflexes with elderly concerns.
Below is a phenomenal case study showing how innate rhythmic movements and reflex movements help enormously with a 73-year-old stroke victim.
May this information be a blessing to you and those you serve.
With best wishes and a grateful heart,

This study shows more in the decades-long line of evidence that active primitive reflexes go hand-in-hand with dysfunction. In this case, with cognitive impairment. There is anecdotal evidence that doing rhythmic and reflex movements can be very helpful with outcomes for the elderly. http://www.scielo.br/pdf/anp/v63n3a/a04v633a.pdf

Research Article #2 This study shows that knowledge of primitive reflexes can provide a means to help early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4927824/ Research Article #3 This study shows a higher prevalence of primitive reflexes along with depressive disorder, in elderly with cerebrovascular disease. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10556868/ Research Article #4 This study shows that active primitive reflexes appear to be associated with the risk of malnutrition and developing aspiration pneumonia in the elderly.  https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/ggi.12078
