In this episode, I'm chatting with Erin from Brain and Body Health, based in Gladesville, Sydney. Erin shares how looking beyond surface behaviours to understand what a child’s body is communicating can strengthen a child's brain and nervous system, with the goal of regulation rather than “fixing” a child. This is an interesting and reassuring conversation for parents who feel like their child is constantly stuck in fight or flight.
In this episode, we explore:
How Erin became a chiropractor for kids
Finding the root cause with the ‘5 whys’
A child’s primitive reflexes 
What retained primitive reflexes may look like
Why they can be retained rather than integrated
How a session with Erin looks
Testing to find retained primitive reflexes
