Jak poznat přetrvávající primární reflexy? Přehled varovných signálů v raném vývoji i jejich dopadů na pohyb, učení a chování dítěte. Jak mohou přetrvávající primární reflexy ovlivnit dítě? Některé projevy v pohybu, učení nebo chování nejsou jen „fáze“. Můžou souviset s primárními reflexy, které měly v raném vývoji přirozeně odeznít. Níže najdete oblasti, kde se to nejčastěji projeví. Zjistit více Stáhnout v PDF První signály se často objevují už v kojeneckém věku: nezvládnuté pasení koníčků kolem 3. měsíce časté lekání, neklid potíže s krmením nebo spánkem potřeba neustálého houpání propínání do „luku“ při otáčení vynechání plazení nebo lezení jednostranné plazení nebo tahání nohou velmi brzké postavení a chůze Jak se to může projevovat později Pokud reflexy přetrvávají, projevy se často přesouvají do dalších oblastí: Motorika a držení těla horší rovnováha a koordinace potíže naučit se jezdit na kole ploché nohy, „vyvalené“ bříško skolióza horší jemná motorika potíže s výslovností neklidné oční pohyby (problémy při čtení) nevydrží sedět v klidu, „kroutí se“ na židli Učení křečovité držení tužky pomalejší nebo obtížná grafomotorika horší koordinace ruka–oko potíže se zapamatováním písmen problémy s matematikou a čísly horší orientace v čase a prostoru potíže se čtením kolísavé výsledky Soustředění a psychika snadno se nechá vyrušit kolísá pozornost někdy působí, že nevnímá hyperaktivita nebo naopak utlumenost hůř zvládá stres odmítá změny může se objevit porucha učení Emoce a seberegulace rychlé výbuchy emocí obtížné zklidnění nízká tolerance frustrace kolísání nálady úzkosti náročné chování po škole potíže se spánkem Smyslové vnímání přecitlivělost na hluk, světlo nebo prostředí nesnášenlivost doteků (oblečení, česání) nebo naopak potřeba silného tlaku nejistota ve výškách nebo při pohybu potřeba se točit nebo houpat vybíravost v jídle (textura, pachy) časté žvýkání věcí nejasné tělesné signály (např. WC, bolesti břicha bez příčiny) Co z toho plyne Jeden projev sám o sobě nic neznamená. Pokud se jich ale objevuje víc a dlouhodobě, dává smysl se podívat, zda skutečná příčina nejsou přetrvávající primární reflexy. Co s tím můžete dělat Možná jste už zkusili různé přístupy – cvičení, logopedii nebo změny ve škole. Pokud se ale potíže vrací nebo nemizí, dává smysl podívat se na jejich skutečnou příčinu.

I am selling my books on persistent primary reflexes for both experts and the general public. Hardcover or as e-books. Courses and E-shop Books Online courses and seminars Exercise Tools Books If you want to know more about primary reflexes and their influence on learning and behavior, you might be interested in one of the books. The first book "Persistent primary reflexes, a neglected factor in learning and behavior problems " is intended not only for experts but also for the general public. For this reason, I tried to present the issue in the most comprehensible form possible. The book "Theoretical Foundations of the Neuro-Developmental Stimulation Method " is primarily intended for experts and discusses the scientific findings on which the Neuro-Developmental Stimulation method is based. The objective of my latest book, "Dyslexia! Or Not?" , is to illustrate the impact of persistent primary reflexes on vision development, as well as the relationship between eye movements and coordination, and the symptoms of dyslexia and other reading difficulties. Dys lexia! Or not? Reading difficu lties can stem from sources other than dyslexia, such as persistent primary reflexes, which can negatively impact eye movement and coordination, resulting in similar symptoms to dyslexia. For children whose dyslexia symptoms are influenced by persistent primary reflexes, interventions must target inhibiting these reflexes first. Traditional dyslexia interventions may not produce the expected results for such children. The focus of this book is to explore the impact of persistent primary reflexes on vision development, eye movements, and coordination, and their relationship to dyslexia symptoms and other reading difficulties. Visual development can be envisioned as a lighthouse, with primary reflexes representing its foundation. To read correctly and smoothly, all the floors of the lighthouse must be in order, creating a stable base for the light (i.e., reading ability) to shine reliably. Throughout this book, we will examine each floor of the "lighthouse" and explore activities that can improve them gradually.

Each story in the book is connected with a specific block of exercises that form part of the programme and is intended to help children become familiar with the names of these exercises. The aim of the book is to provide kindergarten teachers with a tool that allows them to integrate movement activities into their teaching in a way that is playful, engaging and interactive for children. We hope that this combination of stories and exercises will support children’s understanding and memorisation of the exercises. Please note that the NDS Active Development exercises themselves are not explained in this book. This book is currently available in Czech only. Hardcover Price 490 CZK+ postage Buy a book New book! NDS Active learning - Unlocking Potential through Neuro-Developmental Stimulation This book explores the role of primary reflexes—innate responses present in infants that play a crucial role in healthy development. These reflexes are designed to naturally fade once their purpose is fulfilled, but what happens when they persist? Retained primary reflexes can disrupt sensory perception, balance, motor coordination, and learning ability. They may also contribute to challenges such as difficulties in reading and writing, behaviours mimicking ADD, ADHD, or autism, and even affect gifted individuals by creating hidden barriers to their success. This book provides a clear, comprehensive guide to understanding primary reflexes, healthy psychomotor development, and the impact of sensoryafferent integration. You’ll also find practical tools, including reflex tests and activities that can be done at home to address sensory-motor challenges. PhDr. Marja Annemiek Voleman, PhD., born in the Netherlands and now residing in Prague, Czech Republic, is a renowned expert in Neuro-Developmental Stimulation (NDS). This book builds on her earlier work, Persistent Primary Reflexes – The Overlooked Factor in Learning Disorders (originally published in Czech). Drawing on decades of experience in the field, Dr. Voleman combines scientific insight with practical application, making this book an essential resource for parents, educators, and professionals seeking to unlock the full potential of every child. Whether you are looking to support children with specific learning difficulties, autism, or simply to improve motor and sensory skills, this book will provide the tools and knowledge you need to make a difference.

A new section, “The Application of Neuro-Developmental Stimulation”, which now includes not only practical tests, such as balance tests and tests for identifying retained primary reflexes, as well as an overview of motor development and laterality tests, but also a set of exercises designed to support sensory-sensitive integration for both parents and professionals. The book is intended for special educators, therapists, psychologists, speech and language therapists, and parents who wish to better understand the connections between the development of the nervous system, primary reflexes, and difficulties in learning and behaviour.

I would like to thank you for your books, I read "Persistent Primary Reflexes" about a year ago. Our son, 7 years old, had problems that suggested autism, but after a year of training to remove the primary reflexes, many of the symptoms improved and some problems disappeared completely. I would very much like your book to reach as many parents, therapists and pediatricians as possible. NDS

By the time children reach young school age, minor brain disabilities such as ADHD and specific learning disorders (SLD) become evident. Find more information here. Overview of reflexes Babies Toddlers Preschoolers Little school children Teenagers Online courses and seminars Company INVTS s.r.o. School children The period of elementary school typically spans from the ages of 6-7 years, when a child starts elementary school, to 11-12 years, when the first signs of sexual puberty emerge along with psychological changes. Throughout the elementary school period, there is constant development in all areas. Physical growth is rapid, with noticeable differences between boys and girls in skeletal structure and muscle development. Children lose baby teeth and their thinking becomes more concrete and logical. Vocabulary and memory expand, and independence is strengthened. Sensory perception also improves. Elementary school marks a significant shift in a child's life as they become immersed in the school environment. It is during this time that any existing brain disorders may become more apparent, such as ADHD and specific learning disorders like dyslexia, dysgraphia, dysorthography, dyscalculia, and dyspraxia.

This is not surprising as their brains may not have developed optimally, making it difficult for them to process these reflexes. As a result, these reflexes can affect various areas such as muscle tone, posture, coordination of movements, concentration, and eye movements. These symptoms can lead to disorders such as ADHD, ADD, or learning and speech difficulties. It is important to work systematically with primary reflexes to alleviate these problems. However, it is also important to acknowledge that in some cases, primary reflexes may not be the sole cause of the issue, and a combination of other approaches such as speech therapy, special pedagogy, physiotherapy or occupational therapy may be necessary. There are many reasons why primary reflexes persist, such as a risky pregnancy, difficult birth, or diseases in early age. Another significant factor is the healthy psychomotor development of the child in the first year of life . Despite the impact primary reflexes can have, the issue is often neglected from the point of view of prevention, not just in schoolchildren but also in adults. It can lead to faulty posture, headaches, concentration problems, and difficulty coping with stress. Therefore, the topic of primary reflexes will be a recurring theme throughout this website. Stimulating a child's psychomotor development in the first year of life is the best possible prevention for future problems. PhDr. Marja Volemanová, PhD. Zjistit více

Center specialising in Neuro-Developmental Stimulation to inhibit primary reflexes. Personalised plan, follow-ups and home practice. Cortex Help About me Consultation Pricing Cortex Kids Cortex Help contacts Cortex Help® Center Specializing in Inhibition of Primary Reflexes through Neuro-Developmental Stimulation Cortex Help Clinic Welcome to the Cortex Academy® website's Cortex Help section! At Cortex Help, we specialize in Neuro-Developmental Stimulation techniques to inhibit primary reflexes. Our approach is rooted in the concept of reshaping and reprogramming brain patterns, thereby fostering optimal neurological development. Our personalized support plan at Cortex Help combines a range of effective methods, including: Neuro-Developmental Stimulation: We target the inhibition of primary reflexes. Sensory-Sensitive Integration: Our methods encompass various sensory integrations, i ncluding vestibular, tactile, auditory, and more. Special education: We employ special education strategies to enhance specific functions like visual and auditory differentiation, intermodality, seriality, and more. Physiotherapy: Our physiotherapy techniques are designed to prevent and correct muscle imbalances. We utilize exercises on large balls, unstable surfaces, and more. Visual Screening: We conduct comprehensive checks of binocular functions. Children, accompanied by their parents, attend check-up appointments approx. every 8 weeks at Cortex Help. These sessions involve assessing their progress and introducing prescribed exercises that are practiced daily at home. We believe in looking beyond labels. While conditions like dyslexia, dysgraphia, autism, or ADHD offer a framework, they comprise diverse symptoms rooted in various causes. Our holistic approach seeks to alleviate and address individual symptoms to create a comprehensive solution. We emphasize understanding the complete context and avoid focusing solely on a diagnosis for an effective strategy. Where to Go Next on This Website? About me Consultation Pricing For parents Contacts O mně About me PhDr. Marja Voleman ová, PhD. I have been living in Prague since 1999, but originally I'm from the Netherlands. My academic background includes studying physiotherapy and special education at Charles University in Prague, where I also defended my dissertation titled "Neuro-Developmental Stimulation in the work of a special education teacher" in 2020. Since 2009, I have been operating my own consulting facility, where my focus has primarily been on Neuro-developmental therapy, special education, and physiotherapy. In 2015, I established the Institute of Neurodevelopmental Therapy and Stimulation, which has grown and been renamed as Cortex Academy in 2022. I regularly organize courses and lectures on persistent primary reflexes, providing insights and knowledge to those interested. My work in this area has also led me to write three books and several scientific articles related to persistent primary reflexes. Growing Strong: A Metaphorical Tree of Child Development We can metaphorically compare a child's development to the growth of a tree. While we often focus on the child's academic abilities such as reading, writing and counting, these can be likened to the apples on a tree. In order to grow beautiful, red apples, the tree must be properly rooted and well-nourished, with a strong trunk and branches that can support healthy leaves and fruit. Although every tree is unique, they are all based on the same principles and elements governed by nature's laws. Therefore, in the development and education of a child, it is essential to consider: The roots (birth and early moments after birth) The trunk and branches (psychomotor development) The crown (sensory and emotional abilities, cooperation of the cerebral hemispheres, cooperation of the eyes - binocularity) The fruits (academic skills, speech, correct posture, coordination of movements) If the foundations (roots and trunk) are not strong or the tree is not healthy, it cannot support the growth of healthy fruit. Therefore, prevention relies on promoting proper development, and addressing problems from their roots. 1/1
