DRIs your child still bedwetting past the age of 5?
It’s more common than you think—and no, it’s not because they’re “lazy” or “just deep sleepers.”
One often overlooked cause?
A retained Spinal Galant reflex—a primitive reflex that should fade after infancy. When it doesn’t, it can cause unconscious bladder release during sleep (among other sensory and focus challenges).
Another major red flag?
Mouth breathing.
Kids who mouth breathe at night are more likely to experience bedwetting, poor sleep, and underdeveloped airways—this needs to be addressed ASAP.
The good news?
There are simple exercises that help connect the brain and body through reflex integration—and when we do that, incredible things happen. Including dry nights!
The exercises you see in this video are great ones to start with if you have a bedwetter.
They’re part of our upcoming Brain + Body Bootcamp launching inside our new app—coming Summer 2025!
