Masgutova Method:
Masgutova Neuromotor Reflex Integration ~ MNRI
Masgutova Neuromotor Reflex Integration is a combination of specific home exercises and Manual Therapy. The home exercises are easy for a parent to do with their child or for partners / friends to do with each other. The bodywork sessions are usually set in 1,2 or 3 hour blocks.
Masgutova Reflex Integration is being developed primarily with Children with Challenges. Within this group it is normal to see significant changes occur relatively quickly.
The premises of reflex integration are that:
- Our essential neurological behavioral patterning is "hard wired" in our genetic code.
- Our initial (embryonic - 5 years old) behaviors are exercise for these intrinsic neurological pathways. This exercise is called our Reflexes.
- All of our more complex behavioral development rests on top of whatever is established as the norm for these reflexes.
- If there are compensations, adaptations, incomplete development, stress, trauma, etc. attached to or built into these reflexes, our further development will unfold on top of this. This is the same as not being able to build a solid structure on a unstable foundation. Our development will invest energy adjusting for the unstable foundation.
- Exercising these primitive reflexes at any point in our life cycle will gradually bring these reflexes to fuller maturity, removing stress.
- This destressing can be experienced as a burst of energy as the resources that were tied up in adaptions is released and made available.
- Everybody benefits from reflex integration.
