What is motor impairment and how can Conductive Education help?

Motor impairment is a difficulty with movements controlled by the central nervous system. The most common cause of this is cerebral palsy, which is caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain, either during the delivery, or after the birth.

Motor impairment also happens in children with spina bifida, dyspraxia and in adults with MS, Parkinsons and after a stroke.

The Rainbow Centre in Fareham is the only charity in the area to provide Conductive Education to these children to help them to overcome the difficulties they experience because of their condition.

Conductive Education is a unified system of rehabilitation which can provide the following benefits:

• Improved mobility and therefore greater independence
• Greater self-esteem
• More physical stamina
• Better development of muscles and bones
• Better social and verbal skills.

The principles of Conductive Education

Conductive Education was developed in Hungary in 1945 - and it approaches motor disability from an educational perspective rather than a medical or paramedical one.

The Rainbow Centre in Fareham provides Conductive Education to all young children who might benefit from it in the form of parent and child groups or individual sessions.

As a charitable organisation, The Rainbow Centre in Fareham focuses on the total development of children and adults, helping them with the integration and development of motor, intellectual, social and academic skills.
