“Primitive Reflexes: A Child in constant fight or flight mode”
“Moro Relex: This reflex acts as the baby’s fight or flight response to the world. This important reflex usually integrates into the adult startle response by four months”.
“What happens when one of these primitive reflexes do not disappear or integrate? Well lets take the Moro Reflex for example….the child has exaggerated reactions to sounds, hot and cold, touch, and visual and hearing input…tey continue to have sensitivities in school or at home even when they grow older”
There are some suggestions in the article that can be used when the fight or flight mode has taken over.
There are also tests to see if the Moro reflex is still present in your child.
