Neuropsychomotricity is a discipline that deals with accompanying and helping the developmental processes of childhood, through interactive proposals that use movement as a privileged channel to integrate mind and body . The psychomotor methodology, based on the knowledge of the operating laws of infantile play, in the balance between content, form and emotion, also aims to help children, with respect to the problematic areas of each, to organize a "good game" in the belief that it and the specific context, at an early age, to face and integrate aspects that have evolved in a disharmonious way.

​

Through movement and play, the child therefore has a concrete experience of actions and their results, of the relationship with the other and of the different ways of communicating. Psychomotor therapy is also considered in second childhood, and especially in the face of difficult situations, a useful tool for developing a more integrated body image and better personal adaptation .

The Neuro and Psychomotricity Therapist of the developmental age is the health worker who, in possession of the qualifying university diploma, carries out, in collaboration with the multi-professional team, the prevention, therapy and rehabilitation interventions of childhood neuropsychiatric diseases.
