Chiropractic Care Can Improve Kids’ Balance and Coordination

Balance and coordination are two important gross motor skills in a child's physical development. They allow children to participate in sports and other physical activities and reduce their risk of injury. Balance and coordination also improve a child’s ability to perform everyday tasks. Poor development in these areas, however, can cause physical limitations that lead to low self-esteem and/or feelings of isolation when a child can’t keep up with his or her peers.
