Healing Naturally and Primary Reflexes by Margaret Mulder is actually a book unlike any I have ever read before. I have done a lot of reading about natural healing, but I have never heard of primary reflexes. Primary reflexes, as you might surmise from the use of the word 'primary,' relate to very young children. Certain reflexes are inherent in a newborn child and others develop over the child's first six months or so. Once a reflex has outlived its usefulness, it naturally becomes what Mulder calls' inhibited.' These reflexes have purposes such as helping a baby to hold its head up to crawl, or to withdraw when startled. If these reflexes are not inhibited to make way for new development in a baby, they can cause problems such as autism or physical illness.
I found this book extremely interesting because I have a few unexplained health problems, and I also work in a hospital and so I am exposed to many people with different types of illnesses that I am not familiar with. Healing Naturally and Primary Reflexes will give me a new frame of reference with which to relate to my patients. In addition, I would like to find the source of my migraines and nerve spasms. The answer could be at least partly in primary reflexes. I would like to have seen a few more suggestions for how to work with your own primary reflexes prior to seeking the help of Ms. Mulder, but not much practical information of this type is given in this book, so it is difficult to know how to help oneself to inhibit one's primary reflexes.
