ALL CHILDREN CAN LEARN
A child with a healthy nervous system progresses through experiences, with movement being paramount for rapid transformation. Healthy infants begin experiencing life in the womb. Just watch the belly of a very pregnant mother and observe all the activity! Life has begun, and those movements are not as random as you might think. Each seemingly random movement of an infant’s hands or feet is crucial for the development of their nervous system.
The brain grows rapidly when it receives the necessary information. This process, known as neuroplasticity, is the brain’s ability to grow new neurons throughout life. Movement provides the brain with the information it needs for future rolling, sitting, standing, thinking, and emotional growth. By harnessing the Nine Essentials of brain change—a set of principles designed to enhance brain function—all children can become potent learners.
Children born with brain injuries or who have experienced them progress more slowly than neurotypical children due to the lack of experiences. Each child is unique and learns differently, but every child has the potential to improve.
When a child comes into my office, I carefully observe their movements, problem-solving skills, preferences, and interactions with their environment. I connect with them using gentle touch and movement, speaking directly to their brain. This gentle, holistic and personalized approach not only helps children feel more connected with themselves but also enables them to make significant progress, often in miraculous ways.

We are so thankful for Laura! She has been working with my son for a few months now. We made appointments in hopes of seeing a bit of improvement from a year-old back injury stemming from a sports injury. What we received was measurable benefits where his back, posture, and sleep have greatly improved from the very first sessions. I love seeing his progress grow with Laura each session, she is so attentive and wonderful with him. Traditional physical therapy did not work for him. He toughed out multiple sessions per week for many months, with no tangible improvements. It was getting harder and harder for me to convince him to go to PT. With Lucrative Movement, he can feel the difference. He is always so excited to go see Mrs. Lau.

Six year old
Before Avery began working with Laura she had some tough challenges. Always hyper she was unable to sit still, had trouble paying attention, and found it difficult to control her emotions.
With Laura’s help using the principles of ABM, Avery has made incredible progress.
We began to see changes within two to three weeks. Along with improved speech she has become more aware of herself which has helped her learn how to control her emotions, giving her the ability to calm herself down when things get overwhelming. She has much better self-confidence and she is doing very well in school.
