About INPP

INPP has pioneered research into the impact of neuromotor immaturity on learning and behaviour.

The Institute for Neuro-Physiological Psychology (INPP) offers a ground breaking approach to addressing learning difficulties, behavioural issues, and developmental challenges in children and adults.

Our method identifies and treats underlying physical factors—specifically persistent primitive reflexes—that can impede a person’s natural development.

Every child is born with a set of reflexes that should be integrated within the first year of life. If these reflexes persist beyond infancy, they can disrupt motor development, visual functioning, hand-eye coordination, and perceptual skills, ultimately creating barriers to learning.

Neuromotor immaturity can also contribute to behavioural challenges such as concentration difficulties, frustration, poor impulse control, and underachievement.

The INPP Method is designed to identify the underlying causes and provide a drug-free, non-invasive treatment, helping children overcome these challenges and equipping them with the tools to succeed

Through our clinically proven, drug-free programme of specialised physical exercises, we help children and adults overcome barriers to learning, improving coordination, concentration, and academic performance.

For over 45 years, INPP has transformed the lives of thousands of children and adults worldwide, giving them the neurological foundations they need to reach their full potential.

Neuro-Developmental Research

The INPP Method is based on over 45 years of pioneering research, expertise and practice investigating physical factors underlying neuro-developmental, learning and behavioural problems in children and adults.

Our Expertise

Specialists in identifying and treating physical factors underlying specific learning difficulties, under-achievement and behavioural problems.

INPP has been researching the effects of neuro-motor immaturity on learning and behaviour since 1975, helping many thousands of children and adults worldwide through our drug-free, non-invasive approach.

The science behind our method.

Every child is born with primitive reflexes ("survival reflexes") that should be integrated or transformed into postural reflexes during the first year of life. When these reflexes persist beyond this critical period, they can:

  • Interfere with motor development

  • Affect visual functioning needed for reading

  • Impact eye-hand coordination required for writing

  • Disrupt perceptual skills development

  • Create barriers to learning

  • Lead to behavioural challenges including concentration difficulties and poor impulse control

How the INPP programme works

The INPP Method involves daily physical exercises based on natural movements made during the first year of life. These specially designed movements help to:

Integrate persistent reflexes

Improve balance and posture

Enhance coordination

Develop better eye movement control

Support overall development and school progress

Just 5-10 minutes a day can make a significant difference in a child's development.

Our approach

Following a detailed assessment, each person receives an individual programme of exercises to perform at home under supervision. The programme typically:

  • Takes only 5-10 minutes daily

  • Continues for approximately one year

  • Includes progress reviews every 6-8 weeks

  • Features exercises adapted according to progress

  • Emphasizes regularity, repetition, and duration for optimal results
