Our Vision is To see all of those who are impacted by stress, neurodevelopmental and learning challenges experience hope, recovery, and restoration.
The MNRI Educational Family Conference is the most comprehensive MNRI treatment option available to families. This is currently the only regularly scheduled venue through which families have direct access to Dr. Masgutova. In addition to the expertise of Dr. Masgutova, certified MNRI Core Specialists from the United States, Canada, Europe and Russia, travel to the conference location to provide the 6 hours of treatment your child will receive during each schedule conference day. Early on in the conference, Dr. Masgutova completes an in depth assessment from which she forms the conference plan that will guide your child’s treatment. The intensive 6-hour days are split into 6 sessions per day, each session focusing on MNRI techniques related to one of Dr. Masgutova’s many core program courses. While treatment is concentrated and intense, long lunch hours and dinner breaks as well as a free day in the middle of longer conferences, help to provide some rest in within and between the busy days. Throughout the conference, parents get significant exposure to MNRI Method techniques and receive instruction from the Certified Core Specialists during each of the different MNRI program sessions on how to carry on treatment at home. General conference details are as follows:

SMEI Cancellation and Refund Policy
MNRI Family Conferences are staffed by a diverse field of professionals who have been certified as Core Specialists. Many of these professionals run their own practice in addition to assisting us. As such, some conferences may have a limited number of staff.
In order to provide the best service possible for our families, we limit the ratio of Client to Specialist to 1|1.
With our desire to maintain a high level of service, cancellation of registrants may occur if there are not enough Staff. Registrants will be informed of this 10 days before the event takes place. If SMEI is forced to cancel any registrants, a full refund of the conference fees will be given. Cancellations will be offered first on a voluntary basis. If there are not enough volunteers, cancellation protocol will be enacted starting with the most recent registrants.
Full refunds will be given for registration cancellation up to 21 days prior to the conference.
A 25% administration charge will be retained for cancellation 11-20 days prior to the conference.
Cancellation within 10 days of the conference is non-refundable due to the financial commitments that the organization has made to hotels, travel expenses and salaries of Core Specialists from around the world.
We recommend that attendees who will be flying do not purchase their flight until after the 10-day window has elapsed to avoid a nonrefundable circumstance with the airline. SMEI is not liable for any ticket costs related to the course being canceled. SMEI is not liable for any costs related to transportation (airline tickets, train, taxi, etc) due to the cancellation of an event.
