When these reflexes persist beyond their natural timeframe and are not integrated into higher brain functions, they can interfere with a student&#8217;s ability to concentrate, process information, and participate fully in learning activities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the Moro reflex, associated with the fight-or-flight response, if retained, can lead to heightened stress responses, hindering focus and attention. Similarly, the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex, crucial for eye-hand coordination, can affect tasks like reading and writing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Addressing retained primitive reflexes through targeted therapies can play an important role in enhancing learning experiences. By integrating these reflexes, students can improve their motor skills, attention, and overall ability to engage effectively in the learning process, allowing them to reach their full academic potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These therapies at TLC are at the lowest level of the Learning Continuum. By working at this lowest level on the continuum, our students improve their academic learning, attention and social skills more efficiently.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full-width-content&#8221;
