I am a mama bear on a mission. 🐻
Not just to help my own kids, but to help families understand why sometimes supporting our kiddos feels harder than it should.
Primitive reflexes are automatic movements we are all born with. They form in utero and help babies survive and develop during the first and second year of life.
As the brain matures, these reflexes are meant to integrate, meaning mature and disappear, allowing higher brain centers to take control. When that integration doesn’t fully happen, the nervous system stays stuck in a more reactive, survival-based state.
Scientifically, this means lower brain circuits continue to dominate instead of efficient communication with higher brain regions responsible for focus, regulation, coordination, and learning.
At NuLife Wellness Center we don’t guess, we assess. We identify which part of the brain needs more support so the body can respond to the right stimulation instead of reacting out of fight or flight. Through targeted and repetitive movements, we help the brain complete missed developmental steps, strengthen neural pathways, and improve brain body communication.
So don’t label your child just yet.
This is about giving the nervous system what it needs to mature, so children can move, learn, and thrive with less effort and with more confidence, so they can reach their full potential.
