balance

Post by ALADDIN »

What is the relationship between dyspraxia and balance ?

Is it not falling over or much more than that.

This is the area of dyspraxia, I am least familiar with.

I think, this is potentially the most vulnerable aspect of dyspraxia.

It varies from person to person and there could potentially be other factors so worth speaking to your Dr if you're at all worried and you feel less balanced and/or more unsafe..

I do find sometimes I'll step back and feel as if I might go over but mostly I manage to remain on my feet. I'm not a huge fan of step ladders or being up high esp if I look down.
