ATNR: Brain Therapy for Neonatal & General Reflexes (BR) - Dr B. Chikly

The Chikly Health Institute (CHI)

The Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (ATNR) is also called the Fencing Reflex / Fencer Pose.
This reflex appears in utero around 18 weeks after conception and is usually inhibited at approximately 4-6 months after birth.
This reflex helps develop laterality and is fundamental in auditory and visual processes; ATNR is essential for reading.
The Brain Therapy Curriculum is an advanced-level course that takes us to the next realm of manual therapy. It explores the brain, spinal cord and related pathologies such as closed-head injuries, whiplash, headaches, dyslexia, cerebral palsy, cognitive behavioral dysfunctions, learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. Students will learn specific techniques to release brain-centered restrictions as well as the damaging effects that these restrictions cause.
These are advanced classes that use a slightly different paradigm by working extensively with the brain parenchyma, grey and white matter, cranial and spinal nerves and vascular structures rather than mainly concentrating on the cranial bones and membranes.
The body often aligns itself around these precise structures and they are frequently unaddressed key/dominant tissue restrictions.
Many topics are covered including
1- Cranial bones (intraosseous and interosseous lesions),
2- Cranial membranes in all anatomical directions
3- Fluid: 3 distinct compartments
A- Subarachnoid spaces and cerebral cisterns
B- Brain parenchyma and the glymphatic system
C- Ventricles
4- Grey Matter: 3 and 6 layered cortex and brain nuclei
5- White Matter: 3 types of organization
6- Electro-magnetic field (EMF) of the brain
7- Emotions, mental or spiritual dimensions as well

I am an OT and recently took this course offered through Chikly Institute. It was groundbreaking, wonderful, functional, and will now be instrumental to every session I have with clients! Thank You Dr Chikly, and Thank You Chikly Institute!!

Does it really work well to integrate in integrated reflexes ?

[@JoyComesFromGod]

@@brianpaxtonPT It is common for motor reflexes to be incompletely integrated in children or adults. This can be due to, & not limited to, trauma & lack of experience/development. The Chikly Method of motor reflex integration helps you reach 100% and can be used again s/p an event that sets you back. The course is dependent on us students practicing what we learn on each other. I had great results on myself, and in my classmates. With long-term benefits.

Cost of treatment of autistic child with ry reflexes unintegarted per session thanks very much

[@JoyComesFromGod]

@@ghadashenoda8705 @@ghadashenoda8705 the cost depends on the credentials of your therapist. A D.O. will charge more than a PT or OT. And depending on how many yrs of experience a massage therapist has, their rates will vary. I don't know their specifics. It also depends if reflexes are the only thing the therapist is working on. I work for a non-prof, so anything I do in a session is free. San Diego Regional Center, for ages 0-3yrs. What would I charge as an OT? I could charge $50-$100/hr. The therapist gets to choose based on their own skills and financial needs.
