    Study Notes

    Motor Development and Neurotherapy

    • The study of motor development during the first year encompasses typical and atypical development.
    • Motor development is a lifelong process.
    • Development occurs across multiple dimensions (physical, cognitive).
    • Development is plastic and flexible.
    • Development is contextually dependent.
    • Development is embedded in history.
    • Sensory input contributes to motor development.
    • Motor development involves all sensory systems, including visual, vestibular, and somatosensory systems (proprioception and tactile).
    • Infants' repetitive movements help develop sensory awareness of those movements.
    • Key aspects of motor development include the ability to move and transition between movements.
    • Weight shifting provides crucial sensory stimuli for postural reactions and balance.
    • Righting and equilibrium reactions are postural responses that are learned and anticipated through experience and practice.
    • Trunk muscles work synergistically, balancing each other to control body movements.
    • Trunk movements on each plane affect extremity movements on those planes.
    • Maintaining sitting and standing postures allows continued practice of movements in plane.
    • Transitions between positions are essential for enabling movement.

    Developmental Time Periods

    • Infancy: birth to 2 years
    • Childhood: 2-10 years (female), 2-12 years (male)
    • Adolescence: 10-18 years (female), 12-20 years (male)
    • Early adulthood: 18-40 years
    • Middle adulthood: 40-65 years
    • Older adulthood: 65-death
    • Young-old: 65-74 years old
    • Middle-old: 75-84 years old
    • Old-old: 85+ years old

    Typical Motor Development During the First Year

    • Neonate (1–10 days): physiological flexion; flexor activity in ankles, knees, hips, and elbows; hip flexion causes weight shift forward onto the face.
    • Two months: semi-hypotonia, decreased flexion, increased extension, asymmetry.
    • Three months: active symmetry, bilateral control of neck and trunk muscles.
    • Four months: strong symmetry, bilateral symmetrical control of flexors and extensors, maintains midline control of head.
    • Five months: lateral weight shifting, lateral righting; maintains forearm weight bearing.
    • Six months: good head control, ability to extend, laterally flex, and flex head; increased shoulder girdle control.
    • Seven months: sits independently; begins to shift weight; protective extension reactions.
    • Eight months: improves trunk control in sitting.
    • Nine months: very functional in sitting, dynamic mobility of the lower limb.
    • Ten months: refined UE and fine motor skills; improves trunk rotation
    • Eleven months: exploration, able to rotate in long sitting.
    • Twelve months: sufficient trunk control for lateral flexion, rotation, and extension.

    Atypical Development

    • Atypical development is individualized.
    • Atypical development is not necessarily a result of impairment.
    • Atypical development can be an adaptation to an impairment.
    • Several conditions can affect the development path, including brain damage, hypoxia, congenital birth defects, genetic disorders, plexus brachialis damage, cranial nerve damage, and spina bifida.
    • The progression of neurological condition can be reversed with the right intervention.
    • Several neurological issues and symptoms may occur without necessarily being shown on scans.

    Brain Development

    • Brain development begins at 350 grams at birth and grows to 700–800 grams by age 1.
    • New synapses develop, causing enlargement of the brain.

    • Seven-month-old signs of delayed development
    • Twelve-month-old signs of delayed development
    • Eighteen-month-old signs of delayed development
    • Twenty-four-month-old signs of delayed development
