Screening Questionnaire

Children's Screening Questionnaire

The Children's Questionnaire is designed to identify whether the INPP Neuro-developmental therapy/reflex integration we offer is likely to  help you.  This is helpful for both you and me: for you so that you will see the sort of information I will be looking for and for me to begin to form an understanding of the difficulties your child may be facing.

​

Research published in the British Journal of Occupational Therapy has shown that a score of 7 or more 'yes' answers on this questionnaire indicates that further investigation for underlying neuro-motor immaturity is advised for children over 7 years of age

 

This questionnaire is specifically looking at neuromotor immaturity. It may be that there are still ways that Map & Compass can be a help including listening therapy (Tomatis®  or Johansen ) , bilateral integration (RGM) or a customised programme, but this will give you a good idea if neuromotor immaturity specifically may be at the root of the difficulties your child is facing. 

​

**In more recent years since this questionnaire was developed, it is now understood that if Anxiety, Reactivity or Emotional Dysregulation is a part of the picture for your child, there is an even higher likelihood that neuromotor immaturity may be a key piece of that puzzle and worth looking into with an assessment in order to determine if a programme of Neurodevelopmental Therapy may be a help to your child.  

 

For more information on the auditory or bilateral integration therapies I offer that can address a range of difficulties please read more on the website or feel free to be in touch. ​
