RMT (Rhythmic Movement Training) is a unique sensorineural therapy that has its origins in the early 1980s on the work of Kerstin Linde, a Swedish movement therapist who developed the first rhythmic movement exercises by observing motor patterns. repetitive to young children. Her work was then validated and developed by the clinical work of Dr. Harald Blomberg, psychiatrist, then by that of Moira Dempsey, a remarkable kinesiologist of international reputation and founder of RMTI (Rhythmic Movement Trainiing International).


The method is now taught to all kinds of professionals (chiropractors, doctors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, osteopaths and others) all over the world. It was created to promote the integration of fierce primitive reflexes in children.


It was founded to support in a holistic, positive and completely natural way babies or children with challenges of all kinds (irritability, sleep, anxiety, postures, language, writing, learning, hypersensitivity, ADD, ASD, motor skills, emotions, etc.).


This practice is growing in more than 27 countries and is of interest to a growing number of health professionals.


The approach consists of giving the body soft and pleasant rhythmic cradles in different positions that imitate the sequences of "reflex" and spontaneous movements of infants and very young children. These movements take place directly on the floor, on a yoga mat or on a chiropractic / massage therapy table. These sequences are fundamental in the development of the young baby because it is they which will make it possible to trace, step by step, all the neuronal connections of the brain that the child and then the adult will need to function optimally in the world. Motor and postural control, emotional, visual and language development and cognitive skills among others effectively depend to a large extent on neuronal networking acquired through sensory stimulation of reflexes.


We quickly understand the impact that the different forms of interference that the baby may have encountered, thus preventing him from performing certain sequences of reflex movements in sufficient quantity to obtain an optimal neuronal connection: for example the child who has not been carried enough in the arms, who has little or no crawling or who has little or no crawling. Thanks to cerebral plasticity which allows the brain to be able to continue neuronal connections, even in adulthood, the RMT method makes it possible to target and then reproduce possible “missed” movements.

The method also integrates other proven techniques such as isometric pressures, stretching, tapping or visual training for example. The objective of this global training aims at the stimulation then the maturation and the balancing of the primitive reflexes of the early childhood and allow the baby or the child (or even the adult) to develop neuronal connections and internal resources. deep and effective.

CUSTOMERS AND PRICES

Children of all ages are welcome, and babies from the age of 2 or 3 months.

 

The consultations are repeated once a month and last 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the receptivity of the child, my observations and the needs of the session.

The duration of the follow-up varies according to the goals and needs of the child and is discussed throughout the process, which does not require anything. It is usually a few months to 1 year or sometimes longer for in-depth work or follow-up throughout childhood. One thing is certain, it is always you who choose!

 

The rate now becomes a monthly plan and now sits at $ 150, which includes:

 

- Work by movements with the child in consultation in person

- A meeting of 20 to 30 minutes in ZOOM per month without the child to share the information related to the consultation and the reflexes of your child and guide you in the application of the movements at home.

- One-off carrying out of various tests to monitor reflexes

- Small written informative guides to keep on the topic of reflexes and strategies to improve results

- A work plan at home

- A logbook to note progress and progress, named EUCALYPTUS, created by L'Approche Koala

- A receipt for taxes

 

* A few annual places are also offered with a small contribution for low-income families or those who cannot afford the service. In a community, you have to support each other!  

UPDATE: 09/28/21

There is now a waiting list because places are all full. Contact us to put your child on the waiting list.
