What does neurological therapy involve?
Neurological therapy consists of improving and eliminating difficulties/disorders diagnosed in the child. The active participation of the parent/guardian is very important in the therapy process. During each class the therapist provides detailed instructions for practising at home.

It is worth seeing a neurologist if you observe the following symptoms in your child:
- lack of a sucking reflex/other phasic/oral reflex, or a weak or too intense reaction to a stimulus activating it,
- refusing to take food,
- difficulty sucking, biting, chewing and swallowing (choking),
- aversion to hard foods (or with variable consistency),
- excessive salivation,
- permanently parted lips, which may be related to mandibular flaccidity with respiratory dysfunction or abnormal muscle tone,
