8 Day MNRI® Family Educational Conference

The MNRI® Family Educational 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 scheduled 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 8-day 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. 

Conference Focus: 
The MNRI® 8-Day Family Educational conference is an intensive education conference using the MNRI® processes for children and training in these MNRI® processes for the parents.  Each of the 8 days will consist of 6 hours of the MNRI® processes, plus lectures/ training in the evenings. The programs in this upcoming conference will include at least the following sessions:  Reflex Repatterning, Proprioceptive, Tactile Integration, Neuro-structural Integration, Archetype Integration, Facial, Auditory & Visual Integration.

Each child will receive an initial assessment by Dr. Masgutova. Parents will be taught the MNRI® processes and primary reflexes based on their child’s individual assessment during the conference and evening sessions.

Families attending 8-day conferences are provided:

  • A formal in-depth assessment by Dr. Svetlana Masgutova
  • 6 different MNRI® program sessions each conference day, each session 50 minutes long
  • Evening MNRI® lecture & family events (number of events vary based on conference duration)

Cancellation Policy:
All cancellation requests must be submitted in writing to the conference sponsor.  Click here to download our cancellation policy.

Core Specialists and other conference support resources travel to the conference from the U.S., Canada, Poland, Russia and other countries. Travel arrangements for these resources are made in advance to ensure timely arrival and to manage flight costs. As a result, the closer a cancellation occurs to the actual conference date, the higher the potential non-retrievable costs. Any funds held back due to cancellations will go towards covering these non-retrievable costs.

MNRI® Core-in-Training Specialists and IPET Core-in-Training Specialists attending for Clinical hours must register 4 weeks before the Conference and have all required paperwork completed.    

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.

* A 2.5% transaction fee (processing fee) will be withheld on all refunds that were processed using credit card/PayPal. If a participant wishes the refund to be paid directly to their account via credit card/PayPal, PayPal may also charge the participant an additional 2.5% transaction fee (processing fee). Refund by check is available upon request.

For cancellation and refund requests related to health issues, family tragedy or other significant life events please contact us.
