Summary

The main objective of this clinical trial is to investigate the short (immediately after intervention) and medium term (three month) effects of a highly intensive, comprehensive postural control 6-day therapy camp in school-aged children (6 to 12 years) with developmental coordination disorder at different levels of the The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework.

Conditions

  • Developmental Coordination Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Highly intensive individualized balance therapy

In the form of a camp with total therapy hours of 40 hours with a central theme of "Circus", children will receive individualized (1 therapist per child) intensive therapy. The intervention is functional, and divided in six activity categories: jumping, sitting balance, walking and running, circus, individual goals and group activities with focus on social interaction. Each category should: 1. partially or fully cover the multisystemic balance framework of Horak, with the overall program covering the entire framework, 2. be fun and focusing on collaboration rather than competition.
