PHYSIOTHERAPY FOR CLUMSY CHILDREN: AN EVALUATION STUDY

This study reports the findings of an effect‐evaluation study of physiotherapy for clumsy children. 18 children were identified by school doctors as having poor motor co‐ordination. They were followed for three months in order to exclude spontaneous improvement of motor problems; none spontaneously improved. Subsequently, these children were enrolled on a regular physiotherapy programme. Treatment was administered individually twice a week over three months. The effects of treatment for clumsy children appeared to be promising: important improvements were found on various motor skills. These benefits were maintained for a three‐month period after the end of treatment.
