October 16, 2026 – LIVE WEBINAR – Assessing and Addressing Primitive Reflexes in Pediatric Populations

October 16, 2026 | 09:00 AM-11:00 AM CST

This course provides an overview of primitive reflex development and their role in pediatric function. Learners will examine the typical timeline for reflex integration and identify clinical signs associated with retained reflexes in children. Emphasis is placed on developing foundational assessment skills, including safe and effective techniques for eliciting reflexes through guided practice and case-based application. Participants will also explore evidence-informed intervention strategies and therapeutic activities designed to support reflex integration within meaningful occupational contexts. Through a combination of instructional modules, practical exercises, and case study analysis, learners will build the knowledge and skills
necessary to screen, assess, and address retained primitive reflexes in pediatric practice.

Following this course, participants will be able to:

1. Describe the development, function, and expected integration timeline of primitive reflexes.
2. Identify 3 signs and challenges associated with retained reflexes in children.
3. Apply 4 intervention strategies and therapeutic activities to support the integration of reflexes with children.
