Useful and effective tool
I’m an occupational therapist and found this book to be very practical and informative. Easy to orient to how the book is laid out and therefore easy to determine a treatment plan. I especially liked the beginner to advanced format for working on the reflex. It’s great that no equipment is needed I also liked that she told other reflexes to work on that would enhance this reflex. Kokeb took a complex topic and made it understandable and easy to incorporate into the daily routine. I look forward to her next book.
