MNRI stands for the Masgutova NeuroSensory Reflex Integration Program. MNRI is a series of developmental programs that begin with the proper integration of the basic neuro-sensory reflexes that are present at birth and later play important roles in all other aspects of development of the brain.

A reflex is a conscious or nonconscious response to input. Babies are born with reflexes that are tested at birth. The natural birthing process signals the brain to begin integration of the reflexes. When neural reflexes are properly integrated, it leads to normal development of communication, cognition, motor, and sensory abilities.

A delay, omission or failure to complete any of the phases of reflex development affects the formation of future skills. As a result, appropriately matured neural networks are not created. Dysfunction or compensations develop, making the true function of the reflex unreliable during periods of stress. Non Integrated reflexes cause the person to function on a survival level, which in turn leads to a narrowing of attention span, a lack of cause-and-effect thinking, and poor control of motor skills, behavior and spontaneous movement. When primary reflexes are not integrated, it can lead to neurochemical and endocrine issues as well.

MNRI systematically provides the brain with sensory input paired with the correct motor patterned responses. MNRI Specialists will assess how the person’s reflexes are functioning and design a specific plan for how to prioritize and implement a program. Parents are trained on how to do the MNRI work at home with their child with support from a specialist.

MNRI work is done on the body, giving sensory input and passive motor patterning. The child does not have to actively participate, and can even be asleep during implementation of MNRI.

Absolutely. We work with adults who have anxiety, brain injuries, trauma, PTSD and many other neurological conditions.

Yes! Contact Amy Cameron at Pathways Treatment Center at; AECameron66@gmail.com

It is free but must be scheduled by Amy.

$150/ session. Sessions are 50 minutes starting on the hour.

Unfortunately, no. I am a provider under the NCSEAA disability grant program.

Pathways Treatment Center is a Provider under the NCSEAA Disability grant for those who have that coverage. A Bridge to Healing Foundation specifically matches some funding for MNRI therapy. More information can be found on their website (www.bridgetohealinginc.com). Pathways also is able to take HAS and FSA credit cards.

Billing is done on the First of each month for the previous month’s sessions. I credit card or HAS/FSA card is kept on file and charged at that time. A paid invoice will be sent via QuickBooks.

Absolutely, parents are encouraged to be in the room and learning techniques for home programs.

Amy hosts a once monthly Pathways Mom Group, as well as a Facebook messenger chat.
