Present by

Dr. Svetlana Masgutova

Founder of the Masgutova Neuro-sensory-motor Reflex Integration (MNRI) ™ Method
 


Dr. Masgutova is a leader in research on Neuro-Sensory-Motor and Reflex Integration™. Her work facilitates sensory processing, emotional recovery, motor-physical and sensory-motor rehabilitation as well as learning and developmental enrichment.


This lecture will present information and research on the Masgutova Neuro-sensory-motor Integration Reflex (MNRI™) method. The Masgutova Method of Neuro-sensory-motor Reflex Integration - MNRI ™ is based on unique training directed toward the restoration of neurodevelopment and the integration of primary movements, reflexes, coordination systems, and skills for optimal functioning, development, and learning. Serving as the basis for all our learned movement and skills, these movement systems crucially influence the development of the brain and our mental and intellectual processes as we mature.

In her talk Dr. Masgutova will present the Neuro-Sensory-Motor Integration and other programs of movement development as the most natural, non-invasive, holistic and facilitating methods. This program is available to professionals and lay people in countries throughout the world in support of children with challenges. As a result of this program, over 23,000 children world-wide have experienced profound and lasting improvement in their structural, emotional, cognitive and developmental skills.


Part One: What is the MNRI™ Method?

1. The circumstances leading up to the development of this method.

2. The basics of the MNRI™ Method

3. The explanation of how this program enhances the restoration and maturity of primary movements, reflexes, coordination systems for optimal performance of natural mechanisms, brain functioning and sensory-motor integration.

 

Part Two: What the Research Suggests

1. The importance of appropriate work with the deficiencies in the primary motor sphere.

2. Reflex patterns as the units for sensory-motor and proprioceptive integration for improvement in brain processing, learning and overall development.

3. Implication of Reflex integration for learning for reading and writing.

4. Static-motor reflexes and visual reflexes integration – links and possibilities of correction procedures.

5. Current research results concerning the effect of the MNRI Program in the work with children with deficiencies in sensory-motor development.
