Rhythmic Movement Training Symposium

LoveLight, Inc. is pleased to offer a unique opportunity to attend a Rhythmic Movement Training Symposium with Swedish psychiatrist Dr. Harald Blomberg, who developed Rhythmic Movement Training, based on the infant's sequence of natural developmental movements.

Two primary principles of the Blomberg model are that these movements are involved in the maturing of the nervous system and the inhibition (integration) of the primitive reflexes. Primitive (first) reflexes are automatic, stereotyped movements controlled from the brain stem; these reflexes serve an important purpose developmentally, but if they remain active, can hinder one’s ability to learn efficiently and function optimally.

Please contact Dr. Lisbeth Justice at lkjusti1@kent.edu for more information.
