Empowering Little Steps, Transforming Bright Futures
Pediatric Rehabilitation is a specialized branch of therapy designed to support children with neuromuscular, developmental, orthopedic, and sensory conditions in achieving optimal function, independence, and quality of life. It integrates advanced therapeutic techniques, neurodevelopmental strategies, and evidence-based interventions to address movement challenges, cognitive delays, and sensory impairments.

What are Primitive Reflexes?
✅ Moro Reflex (Startle Reflex)
🔹 Triggered by sudden movement or noise.
🔹 If retained, it may lead to anxiety, hypersensitivity, emotional instability, and poor coordination
✅ Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex (TLR)
🔹 Controls head positioning in relation to movement and gravity.
🔹 Retention can cause poor balance, difficulty with spatial awareness, and muscle tone issues
✅ Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (ATNR)
🔹 Also called the “Fencer’s Pose,” it helps with hand-eye coordination.
🔹 Retention can lead to poor handwriting, difficulty crossing the midline, and coordination problems
✅ Palmar Reflex (Grasp Reflex)
🔹 Causes babies to grip objects automatically.
🔹 If retained, it can affect fine motor skills, handwriting, and manual dexterity.
✅ Symmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (STNR)
🔹 Helps in transitioning from crawling to walking.
🔹 If retained, it can cause difficulty sitting still, poor posture, and struggles with reading/writing
✅ Babinski Reflex
🔹 When the foot is stroked, the toes fan out.
🔹 Should disappear by age 2; retention can indicate neurological concerns
