Physical therapy or chiropractor for dyspraxia

Anyone see either of those

Yes athletic dysprax,
All too often! I guess from your forum name that you push yourself quite hard physically and if so, I am the same. My usual reason for visiting such a specialist is lower back pain - normally left side - that I believe harks back to when I herniated the disk on L5 about 4 years ago (hint - if picking up a heavy rucksack from the ground, don't twist whilst doing it!). I'm led to believe that dyspraxics often suffer from poor muscle tone in the lower back / hips / glutes areas, so we are probably more prone to injury in that area. I generally find that, within reason, exercise improves my condition (possible exceptions - kayaking / mountain biking) whilst sitting at a computer makes it worse. Walking - fast with long strides - is always good, as are pilates, and in my experience running is generally OK.
I'm not sure from your post whether you have had many visits to a chiropractor or are looking for advice as to whether to go to one. If the latter, I would say - if you can afford it - go to any physiotherapist, osteopath, chiropractor, remedial masseur etc that works for you. If their work seems too formulaic - i e they always seem to do the same thing regardless of your injury - find another one. Also if they're any good they should give you a programme of exercises to do at home. These should be carried out religiously, and in my view are a big part of what you pay for.
Best of luck

I sis goes to physical therapy for her dyspraxia, and it made a significant difference in her coordination and overall confidence. I highly recommend giving it a try!!

I’d say physical therapy might be more beneficial for dyspraxia since it focuses on improving motor skills and coordination. Chiropractors can help with alignment, but they might not address the specific challenges that come with dyspraxia. I’ve seen people have better outcomes with a tailored physical therapy program that targets their specific needs.

Yes, I’ve seen both! My mother dealt with dyspraxia, and we found an incredible acupuncture clinic ottawa that worked wonders for her. They offer a variety of services, including physiotherapy and manual therapy. The staff explained everything in clear language and focus on addressing the root cause of the problem. Mom hasn't had problems since! If you’re considering options, I highly recommend checking out this clinic!
