About me
PhDr. Marja Volemanová, PhD.
-
I was born in the Netherlands and live in the Czech Republic (Prague) since 1999.
-
My academic background includes studying Physiotherapy and Special education at Charles University in Prague, where I also defended my dissertation titled "Neuro-Developmental Stimulation in the work of a special education teacher" in 2020.
-
Since 2009, I have been operating my own consulting facility, where my focus has primarily been on Neuro-Developmental Stimulation, Special education, and Physiotherapy.
-
In 2015, I established the Institute of Neuro-Developmental Therapy and Stimulation, which has grown and been renamed as Cortex Academy in 2022.
-
I regularly organize courses and lectures on persistent primary reflexes, providing insights and knowledge to those interested.
-
My work in this area has also led me to write three books and several scientific articles related to persistent primary reflexes.
