Clb-- issues I see are:
1. Most real articles from the primary literature about primitive reflexes suggest that they exist in older children because of some sort of neurological issue. This does not prove that suppressing the reflexes will correct the neurological issue.
2. The few articles that do exist are written by a very small pool of individuals and are not accepted by mainstream scientists. However, even their claims are extrapolated far beyond what is shown in the actual research by clinicians who do not have training in this area.
3. As children age, some developmental issues will resolve. This makes it difficult to assess whether the improvement is due to therapy or increased maturity. Relying on word of mouth means that you may receive false information about the efficacy of costly and dangerous treatments. For example, research suggests that vision therapy is useless unless you are dealing with convergence insufficiency. Similarly, chelation therapy does not cure autism and avoiding vaccinations does not prevent autism. I actually wish that the moderators would delete threads where individuals strongly advocate for unproven treatments.
