Final Thoughts

Video games offer a cost-effective addition to current treatment methods. The Wii Fit is an amusing alternative that presents an opportunity to increase the motivation of patients. Current literature already supports the use of exergames for DCD children. With hand-picked balance-focused games, DCD children can further improve static balance. The innovative balance board analyses postural sway with pressure sensors, allowing the individual to practice integrating their three major sensory systems as well as practice reweighing of sensory information. Therefore, this interactive and fun intervention may yield better results than current therapeutic techniques.
