Brain & Body Boost Neurodevelopmental Therapy Neurodevelopmental therapy: Primitive Reflex Integration, Safe & Sound Protocol & The Listening Program Provider getting to the root cause of challenges

brain & body boost is based in Slaithwaite, West Yorkshire, helping both children and adults to overcome learning, sensory, emotional and behavioural challenges. I can help with many challenges including autism, ADHD, dyspraxia, dyslexia, learning difficulties, anxiety, depression, concentration, attention and focus, and general delays in reading & writing through Rhythmic Movement Training (RMTi) and also the Safe & Sound Protocol. RMTi addresses retained primitive reflexes which impact on everyday life and ability to learn with commonly reported benefits being: improved: co-ordination, concentration, academic ability and progress, handwriting, speech and language, reading and mathematics, emotional stability, ability to sit still, forward planning, reduction of anxiety, anger and depression, and improved energy levels. Everyday tasks become easier leading to improved self confidence and a happier home / school / work life.
“When reflexes integrate they form vital neurological connections that underscore every thought, movement, and behaviour therefore retained reflexes can impact normal tasks we take for granted....”
“.....the stress and hopelessness felt by the individual who struggles to cope with an unintegrated reflex system can be overwhelming – the benefits of getting the system ‘back in tune’ are immeasurable.....”
“Primitive reflexes and the level of their integration determine our quality of life - from our ability to move freely to our level of cognition. Matured reflex connections allow us to accomplish tasks with ease and without undue stress. They allow us to reach our potential and experience happiness. When our primitive reflexes are matured or fully integrated, one will typically think clearly, have the ability to behave appropriately, and move smoothly. When one or more reflexes fail to mature or integrate and work synergistically with the nervous system, neurological conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, `cerebral palsy, or ADHD may exist. Immature reflexes can be found in numerous neurological conditions which will benefit from integration techniques....”
Bonnie L Brandes (MEd), The Symphony of Reflexes (2015)
Whilst the Safe & Sound Protocol helps us to feel more safe in our world alloings us to socially engage and therefore engage with learning and also benefit more from other therapies - other benefits seen with the Safe & Sound Protocol include improved auditory processing, reduced sensitivity to sound, improved attention and focus, reduced social stress, and can help with anxiety and trauma related challenges. Based on Dr Porges’ Polyvagal theory, there is no other auditory programme like it. The three pathways through the protocol enable a highly personalised experience ensuring that appropriate route can be taken for each individual.

💡 Did you know? Bedwetting after age 5 isn’t always about behavior. Sometimes it’s connected to reflexes that are still active in the body—like the Spinal Galant Reflex, which is closely tied to bladder function.

🛏️ When this reflex hasn’t fully integrated, it can make nighttime control more challenging.

👉 Curious about how reflexes impact development? We can help!
