Sensory treatment for kids with coordination difficulties
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if a special type of sensory stimulation can improve movement and coordination in children aged 12 to 16 with developmental coordination disorder. The goal is to help with daily motor skills.

This study tests whether task-oriented exercises can improve coordination and daily skills in children aged 4 to 12 with developmental coordination disorder (a condition that makes motor tasks like writing or catching harder). The goal is to help them move more easily and feel more confident in everyday activities.
This study tests a motor intervention for children ages 9 to 11 with developmental coordination disorder, to see if it helps improve movement and coordination.
This study compares two types of movement training—obstacle courses versus targeted coordination exercises—for children ages 7–10 who have difficulty with coordination and motor skills. The goal is to see which approach helps children move and balance better.
This study is looking at people with developmental coordination disorder (dyspraxia) using specific movement and coordination assessments. It may help researchers better understand the condition and how to measure it for future treatments or support.
This study compares how children with and without Developmental Coordination Disorder (a condition affecting motor skills) move their bodies during balance tasks. Researchers will use special tests and motion sensors to see different movement patterns, which could help design better therapy for kids with balance or coordination challenges.
This study tests a counseling approach based on sensory integration test results for children aged 3-12 who have neurodevelopmental problems like sensory sensitivity, coordination difficulties, or delays in learning and daily skills. It aims to help improve their daily functioning.
