Children with movement disorders struggle to control their bodies. In some children, the abnormal movements are predictable, while in others the movements may seem random. Uncontrolled movements come from a problem in brain function that causes unwanted nerve impulses. Movement disorders can drastically disrupt a child’s life and make school, extra-curricular activities and social settings challenging and frustrating.

The movement disorders team at Children's Health℠ is known globally for our ability to help children control and manage muscle movement, so they can participate in activities and enjoy a happy childhood.
