Primary and Primitive Reflexes

I am a kinesiologist but also trained in integrating retained primitive reflexes. These are extremely beneficial for children and adults.
I have seen quite a few neurodiverse children that have particularly benefited from this.
It is non invasive and will include some simple exercises.

What are they?
Primary or primitive reflexes are developed in the womb and just after birth, to give us coping mechanisms and appropriate response to stimuli. Due to some form of stress during pregnancy, birth or early infancy, we retain some primitive reflexes, which have an adverse impact on our ability to learn and interact with the world around us.

If the primitive reflexes are retained, the neural structures of the brain, along with the adult reflexes, cannot develop properly. Our normal development of motor and processing skills and integration of the left and right sides of the brain, are affected. The person is stuck with seemingly immature responses to their environment.

The list shows some of the signs of a retained primitive reflex.
There are more than this!
Do you think you may have a retained primitive reflex?

I work in the Uppingham and Oakham area and can offer appointments after school / work and at the weekends.

Another beautiful day and I’m off to Leicester for a full day in the classroom with a group of wonderful, like-minded souls.

We’re diving deeper into understanding how to get to the root cause of discomfort and imbalances in the body — and how to treat them effectively. Because sometimes, pain and symptoms aren’t just about one thing.

They may stem from structural misalignments, nutritional or hormonal imbalances, or even energy blocks within the body. This new learning will allow me to offer even more well-rounded, supportive sessions for my clients.

Excited to bring all this new knowledge back to the clinic — and help even more people feel like themselves again.

Keep looking after yourself. Your body is always talking — we just need to listen in the right way.

We are delighted to welcome Sarah Clayton-Fish to the Life Rituals team. Sarah is a fully qualified kinesiologist, using systematic kinesiology techniques. Diplomate member of the Kinesiology Association.

Kinesiology is a relaxing, non-invasive complimentary holistic therapy which encourages a sense of well-being. As such it may be helpful to those seeking relief from a range of symptoms. Sarah will work with the client to explore the root cause of your problem and how to bring the body back into balance.

This may involve massaging specific points, providing suggestions such as nutritional supplements, relaxation techniques, lifestyle changes, flower essences, foods to remove or cut down and more.

The basic tool within kinesiology is the muscle response test; this is the ability to hold a muscle against light pressure. Initially, testing a series of muscles highlights which area to focus upon. A muscle will test either strong or weak based on the nervous system control of the muscle, responding in a similar way to a switch.

Kinesiology is based on the theory that manual muscle testing can provide information about imbalances and stresses in the body, be that;

Structural – Joints, muscles, ligaments

Emotional – Anxiety, stress, fears

Electrical – Meridian systems, low energy

Biochemical – Nutritional deficiencies, food intolerances

Retained Primitive and Primary Reflexes

Sarah is also trained in Integrating Retained Primitive and Primary Reflexes.

Primary or primitive reflexes are developed in the womb and just after birth, to give us coping mechanisms and appropriate response to stimuli. Due to some form of stress during pregnancy, birth or early infancy, we retain some primitive reflexes, which have an adverse impact on our ability to learn and interact with the world around us.

Here are just some of the signs of a retained primitive reflex; low tolerance to stress, feelings of overwhelm, compulsive traits, highly emotional, hypersensitive, hyper reactive, sensory overload, dislikes wearing shoes / socks, poor manual dexterity, lack of spatial awareness, fussy eater. There are more!

About Sarah

Sarah first found kinesiology after a friend recommended that she tried it for her back pain. Sarah said “I had been struggling with my back for many years and had tried lots of different things. I was taking the maximum dose of anti-inflammatory medication every day and was then having to take another drug to protect my stomach from the anti-inflammatories. I really wanted to find an alternative to the medication and thought I would give kinesiology a try as I had nothing to lose!

After my first session I was so blown away by how it worked and made me feel that I knew this was what I wanted to do. I was amazed to find out that a food intolerance was causing the inflammation in my body and some emotional issues that I hadn’t realised I was holding on to. It also helped me with my digestive problems. I always left my sessions feeling relaxed and calm with a clear head. After a few sessions I decided that I didn’t need to take the anti- inflammatory medication anymore.”

Appointments with Sarah are available on:

Wednesday 8.30 am – 1pm (some Saturday’s are available, please contact me)
