B<\/span>abies develop their movements, as a reflex. These primary reflexes are necessary for survival like the suction reflex. A baby can suck from birth to get food, you don’t have time to learn this first. Babies also have reflexes to help them learn to roll, crawl, sit and stand.<\/p>\n

By moving a lot, the movements are controlled from the brain and they no longer go by themselves. The primary reflexes disappear and make way for controlled movement. For this you have to make a lot of movements. By moving a lot, their movements will be controlled by their brains.<\/p>\n

When there the child does not have the ability to move around in this way or there is a trauma, such as illness in infancy, it may be that reflexes remain active The body will move without control. These reflexes are stronger than a controlled movement, because survival is of course important. You try to suppress the reflexes and compensate, but a good foundation is not being made and this will cause problems.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Wich problems may apear when the refelxes are not yet fully developed:<\/h2><\/span>
