NeuroMature

Reflex Integration Therapy

NeuroMature addresses retained primitive reflexes through targeted neurodevelopmental exercises. These reflexes, which should naturally integrate during early childhood, can persist and interfere with learning, behaviour, and emotional regulation when they remain active.

What is Reflex Integration Therapy?

Primitive reflexes are automatic movement patterns that develop in the womb and early infancy. They are essential for survival and early development, but should naturally integrate (become inactive) as the brain matures.

When these reflexes remain active beyond their intended timeframe, they can interfere with higher-level brain functions including concentration, coordination, emotional regulation, and academic performance.

NeuroMature uses a structured programme of specific exercises designed to stimulate the neural pathways needed for these reflexes to integrate properly, allowing the brain to function more efficiently.

  • Mother of 8 year old boy

    January 2026

    Programmes: NeuroMature

    Concerns: ADHD with social and behavioural difficulties, including anger outbursts.

    “The NeuroMature Programme has significantly improved our son’s behaviour in school and reduced his anxiety. His handwriting is improving.”

  • Parents of 9 years old boy

    February 2025

    Programmes: BrightBeatz and NeuroMature

    Concerns: Ongoing difficulties with listening, maintaining attention, and writing tasks.

    "My son was given the same feedback at every parent's evening ‘he's easily distracted and distracting', 'he struggles to concentrate!' I didn't know what to do to support him. Going through a programme has helped him with listening and concentration - His year 3 parents' evening was solely about his work - no feedback about his behaviour."

    Throughout his programme mum has also reported that he's fidgeting less and concentrating better; behaviour has improved; vocabulary is good; he's able to work independently without support (mum used to have to sit next to him); pressing less hard when he writes; used to hate English now he finds it really interesting; used to re-read lines now he doesn't need to; used to skip lines when reading but this doesn't happen anymore; feels he can do the monkey bars better and control the ball better in football.

  • Parents of 11 year old boy

    February 2025

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concerns: Challenges with schoolwork and handwriting, alongside anxiety and slow information processing.

    "We have seen improvements with our child's confidence and coordination following the Key Clinic's help. We investigated allergy issues that we weren't aware of which has benefitted how he sleeps and his breathing in general. We have added in more physical activity to also support this process. All the team have been very helpful and supportive. "

  • Parents of 13 year old girl

    February 2025

    Programmes: BrightBeatz and NeuroMature

    Concerns: Anxiety impacting confidence and ability to reach her full potential.

    "Watching our 13 year old daughter grow and overcome challenges has been truly inspiring. She has always been academically bright, but some difficulties with comprehension, speech, co-ordination, and social-emotional confidence often held her back. Through her dedication and perseverance with auditory, neurodevelopmental and postural reflex integration she has made incredible progress.
    Her speech is becoming clearer, her comprehension has improved, and she navigates social situations with a new found confidence. Her co-ordination has also strengthened, allowing her to engage more fully in sporting activities she once found more tricky. Most importantly, she is happier, more self-assured, and embracing her potential. Her journey is a testament to the power of the right interventions and her own incredible resilience. We couldn’t be prouder of how far she has come and are excited for all that lies ahead!
    All this was facilitated by the very experienced and knowledgeable Katy, our Neurodevelopmental and Auditory Practitioner, to whom we are very grateful. She was so patient and warm in her approach with our daughter, enabling her to progress so well through the exercises"

  • Parents of 13 year old girl

    October 2025

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concerns: High emotional dysregulation, sensory processing difficulties, ASD and ADHD.

    "The neurodevelopment programme is a must for adopted children. It underpins all the other work parents do with attachment and trauma and supports children to be the best version of themselves. As a family we are much happier and regulated to face day to day life."

  • Parents of 14 year old girl

    October 2025

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concerns: Emotional dysregulation, sensory processing difficulties, dyslexia, and ADHD.

    "After years of challenges (including big behaviours) and trying lots of different things, we feel like we have finally given our daughter a chance to 'reset' herself. The neurodevelopment therapy has given her the best chance to reach her potential and be happy."

  • Parents of 12 year old girl

    December 2025

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concerns: Difficulties with reading fluency, academic confidence, following instructions in class, and frustration with schoolwork.

    The neurodevelopmental programme has been a resetting of the foundations that now underpins our daughters current confidence and performance across everything. She is enjoying her new school, where they have just qualified for nationals football. We have seen her becoming more independent and confident”

  • Mother of a 12-year-old girl

    November 2024

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Coordination, Confidence, Anxiety, Reading and Sensory Sensitivity

    "My 12-year-old child is unrecognisable. It's as if everything in her life just became easier for her. She is more coordinated and therefore excelling in sport, her confidence has increased, and her anxiety has decreased. She used to struggle with glare from lights and car sickness, which has all stopped. Her reading and writing have had a small jump, but as she was starting from a place where this was impossible for her to do at all, it means I'm thrilled with the jump! Suddenly, she is more able to be independent as she can work out slowly what things say. Jessie has been utterly fantastic and there for us whenever we needed her. She is so knowledgeable and keen to help. Thank you for everything you have done for us."

  • Amy (11 years old)

    October 2024

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Anxiety, Dyslexia, and Confidence

    "Amy has transitioned to high school with a greater degree of resilience and confidence than we could have ever hoped for, which we attribute to her work with The Key Clinic. We are leaving with some work in progress but with strong indicators for our future direction. The Key Clinic has been an eye-opener and an invaluable source of support and information. We have discovered and uncovered, are better equipped, and are extremely hopeful for the future."

  • Mother of a 12-year-old boy

    September 2024

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Dyspraxia, Dyslexia, and Anxiety

    "We feel he has benefitted emotionally and physically. In addition, his ophthalmologist has proven that his processing speed has increased. Hugely grateful, thank you."

  • Mother of James

    July 2024

    Programme: NeuroMature, BioTransform, BrightBeatz

    Concern: ASD, ADHD, emotional regulation

    "Time flies! James has been on a gluten-free diet alongside a dairy-free diet for over 6 weeks. We noticed the difference. The neurodevelopmental exercises also work well. In his mid-April review, his Moro reflex had been integrated. Even before starting the gluten-free diet, we found him slightly easier going. However, the positive changes are even more noticeable recently."

    "James thinks dairy-free doesn't help, but he believes both the ND exercises and gluten-free do. He said, 'my tummy is less painful and my head is not foggy.' I didn't know he had tummy pain as he never complained—I suppose he thought it was part of his life until he had the comparison. It amazed me that he used the word 'foggy.' When I looked it up, 'foggy' is precisely the word used to describe neuro effects from gluten in autism/ADHD."

    "James is generally a happier boy. He still gets grumpy, but it takes less time for him to come around. Four weeks after going gluten-free, on 27th April, he asked me who Andrea Bocelli is, and even did some maths homework with my support, completing more work in one night than I’d ever expect. Vanessa checked his reflexes last week; Moro reflexes are definitely suppressed, and his horizontal gaze is nearly normal. We are so pleased!"

    "Two months after writing this, we didn’t give him milk until last week. He only had organic semi-skimmed milk once a day for 3 days, and after some gluten-free snacks during outings, he was noticeably grumpy and more 'autistic' in behaviour. So, we returned to strict gluten- and dairy-free.""I feel so very grateful that he has made this progress. It has made life much better for our family. Thank you for all your help and advice."

  • Father of Daughter 'G' (10-years-old)

    June 2024

    Programme: Neuromature, BrightBeatz

    Concern: Anxiety, Confidence, Hypermobility, Processing difficulties

    "We heard about The Key Clinic on the radio. The interview stopped us in our tracks—everything Sarah said was describing our daughter. After putting G through the Neurodevelopmental and the BrightBeatz programme, we have a much happier and more confident child! Her reading is better, handwriting has improved along with balance and coordination. The change in her confidence and general happiness is amazing, and bedtime is no longer a nightmare. We can't recommend The Key Clinic enough. The team have changed G's life for the better and in turn ours! Forever grateful."

    Additional Note: [During the review] her father said, "I think she's found her personality. She's a different person." He teared up! She loves school now (and has asked to go back to school after her last few reviews!), and loves reading. She used to shrink away from being the centre of attention, but now she's finding her confidence and will dance around trying to entertain others; teachers are saying the same thing. Emotionally more mature; opting to learn the ukulele and drums and taking her piano exam in November—things we wouldn’t have considered before her programme. Her coordination has significantly improved, and she received a piano trophy for excellent effort and won 'most improved' in jujitsu. Friendships and bedtime have improved by 100%."

    Tip for Parents: "Make sure you put the time into the exercises—the more you put in, the more you'll get out."

  • Mother of Dylan (8-year-old boy)

    June 2024

    Programme: Neuromature

    Concern: Dyslexia, reading, writing, spelling

    "It has been so rewarding to see the improvements in Dylan's academic performance and overall behaviour. He engaged in the programme from the start, and the commitment and perseverance he's shown will benefit him in the future. The Key Clinic have been brilliant—professional, empathetic, caring, and incredibly accommodating. Thank you!"

    Tip for Parents: "Persevere. Very time-consuming, but worth it."

  • Family of daughter (15-years-old)

    June 2024

    Programme: Neuromature

    Concern: Emotional Regulation, Anxiety, and Concentration

    "Thank you for all your help along the way. We have seen an improvement in our daughter’s self-regulation over the last 6 months."

  • Moll's Mother (12-year-old girl)

    June 2024

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Reading, Coordination, Bedwetting, Hypersensitivity, Social Engagement, and Confidence

    "During the time Moll has been with Nikki (Senior practitioner at The Key Clinic) and the gang, she has gone from not being able to read to becoming a voracious reader! Her handwork skills are vastly improved, and her ability to join in, understand, and actively participate in sports and ball games has been completely transformed. She has begun to play guitar, has rejoined formal education, and feels confident and happy. Mostly, she no longer feels 'different'—she is part of a school community and loves her life. We are delighted."

    Additional Note: "This is not a quick-fix programme (or wasn’t for us) but it is worthwhile digging in for the long haul. It won’t always be popular, and you may feel like giving up—don’t."

  • Father of Joseph (11-year-old boy)

    March 2024

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Outbursts, Emotional regulation, Sensory Processing, and Concentration

    "From initial contact to final review, every aspect of The Key Clinic has been exceptional. The improvement in Joseph's concentration, mood, and behaviour as a result of the programme has been astounding. His focus and ability to achieve at school have increased significantly and have been noticed by his teachers."

    Additional Note: This testimonial highlights our journey with Joseph, who was initially identified as having hearing loss—a diagnosis later confirmed by a private ENT consultant, though not by NHS audiogram. While Joseph may consider auditory therapy in the future, he has recently completed the NeuroMature programme, receiving outstanding feedback.

  • Mother of a Son (7-years-old)

    January 2024

    Programme: BrightBeatz, NeuroMature

    Concern: Reading, Writing, Spelling, Maths and Concentration

    "It's been 4 months since we began AIT and two months into neuro therapy. The impact on my son’s spelling, attitude, and desire to read has been significant. His belief has grown, which is driving his attitude to do more, and this is achieving positive results at school and at home. Roll on the next few months!"

    Following the completion of NeuroMature: "If your child is presenting with some challenges, and you want to help them overcome them, get an assessment at The Key Clinic. For our 7 year old it has been life changing!”

  • Mother of a Young Boy

    September 2023

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Writing, Reading, Academic Achievement, and Confidence

    "I just wanted to say our son is in a phenomenally different place now than before the summer break. His teacher cannot believe the improvement in his letter formation—now all of his letters are written correctly (mostly), which means they can read his work! I have received messages from his teachers saying they have cried as they have watched him independently write."

    "He is making progress with reading too—the most profound difference being his attitude, as he reads every day now and will not miss a day. He takes pride in what he is working on, and it is such a gift. Last week he received the Certificate of the Week."

  • Xavi's Teacher

    May 2023

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Fidgeting, Repetitive Behaviours, Concentration

    "There has been a remarkable improvement in the classroom since we spoke before the Easter holidays. Xavi is now more controlled, self-aware, and far less likely to call out. It's been a positive change."

  • Father of Xavi

    May 2023

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Fidgeting, Repetitive Behaviours, Concentration

    "Xavi has his end-of-year exams this week at Kings, and thanks to the recommendations and support we received from you and the OT, along with the neurodevelopmental programme over the past 9 months, he's been a different boy during these exams. He's confident, focused, and calm. We have noticed a significant difference, especially considering the regression we saw before implementing your and Anna T's advice. Xavi is not presenting any tics that we can see at this stage, even under the pressure he's facing."

    Additional Note: "While we still have more work to do, we feel he is in a much better place now. We do need to address his anxiety ahead of next term when new students join his year, and we appreciate Nathalie's email regarding that."

  • Mother of Zack

    January 2023

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Confidence, Social Engagement, and Academic Achievement

    "Zack worked very hard with a number of wonderful therapists, resulting in all of the retained reflexes being integrated and fully developed. His central nervous system has matured, and, consequently, we are already seeing improvements. At school, he has gone from getting grades 1 and 2 to grades 5, 6, and 7. In general, his self-confidence and speech have improved, as well as his posture, his social interaction, and he now has a great social network of friends."

    "We will be forever grateful to everyone at The Key Clinic for helping to unlock Zack’s potential."

  • Mother of a Girl (9-years-old)

    October 2022

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Academic Achievement, Maths, Spelling, and Auditory Processing

    "We saw our daughter go from not reading for pleasure at all to suddenly picking up books and becoming a voracious reader. It is still early days since the programme, and I feel confident that other academic progress will follow."

    “My daughter is now 6 months post her treatment and she continues to go from strength to strength. She is now above average in her class for reading. She has learnt timetables and can tell the time. Her handwriting is significantly neater. She believes she is able to sit better in class. There have been improvements outside of school; she is thriving in her netball and dance classes. I cannot thank the Key Clinic enough and cannot wait to see what happens over the next 6 months.”

    “It has been interesting to witness my daughter’s continued progress. She has recently received her ‘pen license’ at school allowing her to start to use a pen rather than pencil. This may seem like a minor change but is a huge progress marker for her. She feared (as did we) that she might never receive it. She is excelling with her reading, but still below average for maths and spelling&grammar. Even here though there are some signs of progress, she has finally grasped timetables, she can tell the time, she is trying to remember punctuation! She is learning her spellings each week much more easily and it is no longer a torturous process each week. When I speak to her, she believes she is able to sit better in the classroom. Outside of school, she has been participating in dance and netball sessions and really enjoying them. Previously she would attend but not really get much from them. My favourite change of all has been that we have sat together each Saturday and watched Strictly. I know it sounds so minor but this would not have been possible previously. It’s something I cherish!”

  • Mother of Zoe (13-year-old)

    May 2021

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Reading, Academic Achievement, Emotional Regulation, and Anxiety

    "I just wanted to email to say thank you to you and everyone at The Key Clinic—I can't put into words how much it has helped Zoe. We just had Zoe’s interim report for this term, and she is absolutely exceeding expectations. She had 4 A*s, 5 As, and 5 Bs in her subject grades. She finds reading so much easier and doesn't get anywhere near as anxious or stressed. She even had two teeth out at the dentist last week before her braces were fitted, and she was very calm; the whole process was very stress-free, which historically would not have been the case. Going to the dentist before was always very stressful."

    "I think what you are doing is amazing, and from Zoe’s experience, it is definitely life-changing."

  • Mother of Harry

    June 2020

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Reading, Confidence, Academic Achievement and Coordination

    "Harry is a different child—I can't thank you enough. Up to one year since the treatment, he has happily turned into a bookworm and can now ride a bike. There are a million amazing things about it. We owe you a huge debt; it’s an amazing thing you do"

  • Family of Fred

    June 2020

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Concentration and Self-Esteem

    "We really owe you the most enormous thank you for everything you have done for Fred. We brought him to you with a hunch that, while we had some magical days, something was preventing him from truly thriving. During your assessment of him, we could never have fully appreciated the path that lay ahead or the miraculous changes that his and your hard work would set in motion."

    "Prior to his treatment, he found eye contact extremely difficult, seemed to be in his own world a lot of the time, and despite loving sport, was evidently very tired. He was easily distracted at school, struggled to maintain focus, and despite being very capable, suffered from a lack of self-esteem."

    "Six months later, we are delighted to say he is absolutely thriving—he looks everyone in the eye, is far more confident, and is doing really well at school. We are forever indebted to you for your pioneering work and patience."

  • Mother of Two Boys

    December 2019

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Academic Achievement, Writing, and Confidence

    "I am constantly recommending The Key Clinic to friends, having seen the enormous difference it has made to my eldest two boys. Our 13-year-old son has just achieved As (70% & over) for English and Maths at Common Entrance, having always previously struggled to get results above 40%. At last, his effort translates into results to match. It has been remarkable to see our 9-year-old son's writing improve beyond recognition and to see him keeping up with his peers in his work. The confidence of both boys has soared, along with their belief in themselves. Thank you all SO much."

  • Mother of Isabel

    July 2019

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Coordination, Balance, and Confidence

    "Isabel is flying at her new school, begun after the summer intensive Key Clinic weeks. Knowing that she would start boarding somewhere with a greater emphasis on sport than in London, we have been especially happy to observe her newfound physical confidence: 'I LOVE hockey!' She will still opine that 'I am the clumsiest child on the planet,' and the ground still sometimes unexpectedly rises to meet her, but the general sense of settling into herself and her body is a delight to behold."

  • Mother of a young boy

    August 2017

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Dyspraxia, Balance, Anxiety, Coordination and Confidence

    "Our son was diagnosed with Dyspraxia and could not sit on a chair without falling off it! Although very bright academically, he was being bullied at school and suffered regular panic attacks when being driven back to school. The assessment at The Key Clinic revealed the presence of many retained primitive reflexes, which were affecting his balance and coordination."

    "He worked diligently over several months through a neurodevelopmental programme until his system fully matured. Since then, he has made it to the A cricket team, no longer has balance issues, and is no longer bullied or suffering from panic attacks. In fact, some weekends, he says he’d actually prefer to stay at school!"

  • Father

    July 2017

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Academic Achievement, Coordination, and Mood

    "It has now been roughly a month since our daughter's last session of a fast-track programme. Every day, we are seeing improvement in her temperament, her school work, and her overall mood, coordination, and well-being. We keep pinching ourselves and keeping our fingers crossed that this will continue to improve."

    "We could not be more grateful and thankful for your help and commitment."

  • Parents

    April 2017

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Emotional Regulation, Mood, Coordination, and Academic Achievement

    "It has now been roughly a month since our daughter's last session of a fast-track programme. Every day, we are seeing improvement in her temperament, her ability in school work, and her overall mood, coordination, and well-being. We keep pinching ourselves and keeping our fingers crossed that this will continue to improve."

    "We could not be more grateful and thankful for your help and commitment."

  • Mother

    March 2017

    Programme: NeuroMature

    Concern: Processing, Academic Achievement, Writing, Concentration, and Energy

    "The Key Clinic helped us considerably by enabling our son to understand why he was finding certain aspects of his education and daily life challenging. They took a very down-to-earth, practical approach to the diagnostic process and then provided easy-to-use exercises to help our son normalise how he processes information."

    "The results have made a significant impact on the ease of his writing, concentration, and energy levels. We are really pleased we were introduced to The Key Clinic, and we just wish it had happened a few years earlier."
