Assessment at INPP for retained reflexes.

Took dc (10) to an osteopath as I noticed she had a raised hip and had been complaining of leg pain.
After a good clicking session and some massage, the osteo thinks she has retained reflexes so gave me some stuff to google.
It certainly explains a lot about her characteristics, which I had thought were just her, although she has been described by others as odd, or a freaky wierdo depending on who says it Hmm
Academically she doesn't seem to exhibit any of the signs so I am in two minds about an assessment, I hate labels and syndromes iykwim, but obviously I want to help her.
If anyone has experience of INPP can you tell me what they did at the assessment, and will we need a second mortgage for any treatment?
Thanks.

I emailed them and got some useful info through the post. Their website is also good. Dont think is was particularly expensive for each session, but there have to be quite a few if I remember right. Think prices are on the website? Not suitable for us though so didnt pursue it.

Thanks sneeze, 2 hours a day, bloody hell!
I'm a bit meh about it to be honest, didn't know if it was a bit snake oil type of thing. Will have another more detailed look at the website and fill in the questionnaire.

INPP said they are not really suitable for cerebral palsy (us) so not persued. I bought a book from america £60. (£40 was postage!) about someone Musgova and her therapy. Made me want to boil my head it was so complicated! pretty much given up on the book but will dip now and then. again child needs to participate!
