Swedish psychiatrist Harald
Blomberg, M.D. will share his work, Rhythmic Movement Training, which has been
successful in improving emotional functioning, motor difficulties including
Parkinson’s, reading and writing, and behaviors associated with ADHD and autism. Rhythmic Movements mimic the movement patterns of the fetus and baby and are thought to help mature the brain as well as inhibit the primitive (first) reflexes, which are important developmentally but can cause problems if they remain active past early childhood. Dr. Blomberg’s presentation, which is free and open to the public, will be
followed by a reception. Reservations required.
