Recapitulate and Grow
?
Recapitulate: to repeat the principal biological/evolutionary stages during development and growth.
Supporting neurodivergent children and adults through a drug-free,
whole-nervous-system approach.
strengthening the foundations for learning, coordination and
emotional regulation from the bottom up.

By working through retained primitive reflexes, Neuro-developmental therapy gives the body a second chance to grow with greater confidence and capacity.

How neuro-developmental therapy works
Our nervous system underpins how we learn, move, regulate emotions, and respond to everyday life. When this foundation hasn’t fully matured, the body and mind can feel under constant pressure, with challenges showing up as learning difficulties, emotional reactivity, anxiety, or coordination issues.
​
In many cases, these challenges are linked to retained primitive reflexes - the early movement patterns present at birth that should naturally integrate in the first years of life. When they remain active beyond this stage, it can be harder for the brain and body to work efficiently together. This is common and not the result of anything having gone wrong.
​
Neuro-developmental therapy is a gentle, drug-free approach that supports the nervous system’s natural development. Through targeted tactile input and specific movement exercises, it helps integrate retained reflexes and supports the brain’s capacity to organise and adapt.
​
As integration progresses, many people notice improvements in emotional regulation, learning, attention, balance, and overall ease in the body. For both children and adults, this work supports greater calm, confidence, and allow access to one’s full potential.


"Our rightful place as educators is to be removers of hindrances. Each child in every age brings something new into the world from divine regions, and it is our task to remove bodily and psychical obstacles out of his way, to remove hindrances so that his spirit may enter in full freedom into life."
Dr. Rudolf Steiner addressing the Waldorf teachers at the Oxford Course
