Coordination Problems

Coordination is the ability of a person to perform rapid alternate and point-to-point movements appropriately. Coordination problems can affect a person in daily routine. Patients with coordination problems can feel clumsy, have an unsteady gait and fall down frequently. They might even have problems with motor functions like holding an object, writing, tremors, and muscle spasm. Therapies for coordination problems are exercise to strengthen and increase movements, therapies aimed at improving skills and fine motor movements, and speech therapy.
