INPP (Institute for Neuro-Physiological Psychology) was established in 1975 to research the relationship between immature functioning of the central nervous system and learning, behaviour and emotional functioning.
Primitive reflexes are movement patterns present at birth, designed to be transformed during the first year of life. When this process is incomplete, the effects show most clearly in how children and adults move, learn, concentrate and manage their emotions. These patterns do not always resolve on their own.
The INPP method uses standardised neurological tests to identify signs of neuromotor immaturity and a programme of specific daily movement exercises to provide another opportunity for maturation to take place.

An online appointment to discuss your situation in more detail and agree whether to proceed to full assessment.
Full diagnostic assessment
Up to two hours in Leith, Biggar or Aberdeen, covering neuromotor function and, where appropriate, a listening test.
Written report
A full written report with findings and a clear plan for moving forward.
Report reading
An optional online appointment to go through the report in detail, usually without the child present.
Individual movement programme
A daily programme of specific movement exercises — two to three minutes a day — designed around the individual’s neuromotor profile.
Reviews every 6–8 weeks
Regular reviews in Leith, Biggar or Aberdeen to monitor progress and update the programme. The full programme typically runs 9–12 months.
“She took ownership of the exercises. A couple of times she even reminded me she still had to do them.”Parent of a child following combined INPP and Tomatis® programme
“With consistency and doing the prescribed exercises every day — even on holiday abroad — all of the other issues began to subside. All of her teachers commented on the amazing turnaround within one school year.”Parent of a 5-year-old, following INPP programme
