I am the program administrator of Northwest Neurodevelopmental Training Center in Woodburn, OR. We use neurological reorganization to address the problems of autism. Neurological reorganization (neuro reorg for short) addresses a broad spectrum of emotional, behavioral, academic, and physical challenges that arise as a result of disrupted early childhood development. Basically, there is a specific developmental sequence (a series of movement, reflex, and sensory expereince) that babies complete in approximately the first year of life. The completion of the developmental sequence triggers healthy brain growth. If a child does not complete the developmental sequence for whatever reason, functional deficits result. Neuro reorg replicates the developmental sequence that should have put healthy function in place originally (this typically includes crawling on the tummy, creeping on hands and knees, vestibular stimulation, and sensory stimulation). Once a client completes this replication of the developmental sequence, they are typically free of the symptoms of dysfunction. Neuro reorg is not a quick, easy fix, but it is a permanent solution. Currently, our primary client base at NNTC is adopted children, or children and adults who have suffered some form of trauma, abuse, or neglect, but we see people with a wide array of issues. Some of the issues/diagnoses we see most commonly are RAD, anxious attachment, PTSD, ADD/ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder, depression, dyslexia,
obsessive/compulsive disorder, limbic rage, and learning disabilities.

We offer free screenings and education for parents.
