The Move Room: Best Movements For Growing Brains
We are joined by The Move Room today for a brilliant Chat on all things brain and movement for our little people.
As we know in Chiropractic, when our brains are appropriately stimulated and with good clarity in the nervous system – we see sequential movement development in children. This skill continues on into our lives as we learn new tasks, create movement patterns or even recover from potentially drastic events such as illness or injury.
The ability of our brain to grow and develop is an innate function, and it requires a clear nervous system along with appropriate stimulation to do so optimally.
Caroline and Esmie share with us some powerful movement patterns and tips, how to support young children, signs to watch for, fun activities at home and all about the brain and movement development.
We loved this Chat and are sure you will enjoy listening to it too
