Conductive Education

[lourobert]

What is it....who is it meant for...is it any good?? The Educational pyschologist mentioned it today and Im going to view our local centre but wanted to know a bit more first.

hiya,

well its for people who have motor problems amongst others. Generally in the Uk it is used with kids who have CP or other types of tonial problems. Its a holistic approach to dealing with your child, so it not only centres on exercise but also communication, feeding, socialisation etc...
Now its hard work, and for it to really work it takes alot of parental involvment.

We loved it, and I dont think that we would be where we are now without it.

What centre are you visiting?

Lots of information here, lourobert.
