MNRI® IPET NeuroStructural Reflex Integration
MNRI® IPET NeuroStructural Integration
The objective of this MNRI® IPET NeuroStructural Integration course is to provide an individualized training format which emphasizes direct hands-on training and in-depth knowledge of the MNRI® NeuroStructural Integration process, assessment and intervention strategies. To start the MNRI® Intensive Professional Educational Track (IPET) the participant is required to have the following minimum requirements:
- BA, BS or 2000 hours of training in an accredited wellness discipline
- Six (6) Semester hours of training in anatomy and physiology by the time the program is completed
- Signed the MNRI® Trainee Agreement or MNRI® Core Specialist Agreement
- Completion of the MNRI® Dynamic and Postural Reflex Integration course and at least one other MNRI® Course.
- Completion of the MNRI NeuroStructural course at least once before enrolling in the MNRI® IPET NeuroStructural Integration course
- 16 hrs of non-CEU credit online lecture
There are no exceptions to the above requirements. For any questions, please contact info@masgutovamethod.com
Course Objectives:
In this 3-day course (24 hours), attendees learn through course discussion and direct, hands-on supervised practice. Attendees will gain specific instruction on how to release tension of the Tendon Guard Reflex, relax the muscular tension in the whole body, activate the proprioceptive system and body structure links for optimizing self regulation, and activate receptors through deep touch and pressure in a clinical practicum situation.
The IPET NeuroStructural Integration Program is part of the larger MRNI Method. The program focuses on:
- Explain how trauma affects primary motor reflex patterns and identify the protective role of reflexes and how they can hinder self-regulation, learning, and development.
- Describe how stress and negative learning experiences disrupt reflex integration critical for reading, writing, speech, eating, core stability, and sensory processing.
- Explain the link between reflex development and emotional regulation, behavior, and personality formation.
- Define and explain the roles of reflexes involved with motor coordination and auditory processing.
- Identify and examine reflexes linked to survival and protection and emotional stability.
- Demonstrate practical competency in applying Neurostructural Reflex Integration techniques through hands-on assessment and practice of all techniques.
- Explain how programs can impact motor development, posture, learning, communication, and emotional/behavioral regulation.
- Demonstrate knowledge in practical strategies for families to apply MNRI techniques in daily home routines.

Prerequisites: To start the MNRI® Intensive Professional Educational Track (IPET) the participant is required to have the following minimum requirements:
- BA, BS or 2000 hours of training in an accredited wellness discipline
- Six (6) Semester hours of training in anatomy and physiology by the time the program is completed
- Signed the MNRI® Trainee Agreement or MNRI® Core Specialist Agreement
- Completion of the MNRI® Dynamic and Postural Reflex Integration course TWICE and at least one other MNRI® Course.
- Completion of the MNRI NeuroStructural Integration course at least once before enrolling in the MNRI®IPET NeuroStructural Integration course.
Course Length: The course is a 24 hours course over a 3 day period.
Curriculum Design: The course curriculum consists of a combination of historical and theoretical lecture, individual and group technique demonstration and applied practice, class discussion and required exams passed at the good to excellent rating.
All IPETS include:
- Written test before class
- 16 hrs of non-CEU credit online lecture
- Hands-On Exam during IPET class
- Practical Hands-On Graded Exam following 64 conference hours
MNRI® Intensive Professional Educational Training (IPET) for NeuroStructural New format: All participants must be signed up and paid two (2) weeks prior to stated beginning date of the IPET. The basic theory part of this class will be streamed to the participant, once paid, 2 weeks before the scheduled class. There will be an exam that must be completed before the date of the 3 days of on-site training, including the hands-on techniques and strategies of the IPET.
