Unlocking Brain Injury Recovery: The Power of Primitive Reflexes

  • by
In the latest episode of the Concussion Coach Podcast, I sat down with Patti Andrich, OTR/L, COVT, a leading expert in reflex integration and neuro-optometric rehabilitation. If you or a loved one are navigating brain injury recovery, this conversation is a must-listen—it could change the way you approach healing.
What You’ll Learn:How primitive reflexes act as neurological “codes” that, when disrupted, contribute to symptoms like emotional dysregulation, balance issues, and sensory overload.Practical strategies for reintegrating reflexes, including movement exercises, visualization, and sensory stimulation.Why a team approach (with neuro-optometrists, OTs, and specialists) is critical for restoring optimal brain function.Patti’s personal journey from struggling with undiagnosed vision issues to becoming a pioneer in reflex integration.
