A brief discussion on exercise therapy for ADHD

Children are the treasures of their parents and the apple of their parents' eyes. In fact, it is not terrible to have ADHD. What is terrible is that they do not seek treatment in time and miss the best time for treatment. So what kind of exercise should children with ADHD do?

This program directly targets the root cause of learning difficulties, which is the delayed development of the cerebellum. It stimulates the cerebellum's automation mechanism through exercise, improves the efficiency of the brain's management of reading, writing, attention, and motor coordination, and once improved, it will not regress. This possibility of changing the physiological characteristics of the brain is called "plasticity of brain nerve cells."

(1) Skateboarding is a game in which a board with four wheels can be rotated freely in any direction. The mentally retarded child lies prone on the board and uses his body to resist the resistance when the board slides across the floor or onto a slope. The sensory stimulation and motor response promoted by skateboarding are not achievable when the mentally retarded child sits or stands. After skateboarding, the mentally retarded child usually feels focused.

(2) Standing, crawling, and walking on a balance beam Under the protection of a teacher, let the mentally retarded child stand on a balance beam, crawl forward, and walk back and forth, and repeat this several times.

(3) Rotation of the wooden horse: The mentally retarded child sits on the wooden horse and the teacher rotates the wooden horse, rotating it six times clockwise and six times counterclockwise, and repeats this process several times.

(4) Climbing stairs: Let the mentally retarded child jog up the stairs (three floors are preferred), then walk down, and repeat this process several times.

(5) Rolling a barrel: Prepare a large barrel and let the mentally retarded child crawl inside the barrel. The teacher slowly rolls the barrel forward, and the mentally retarded child keeps crawling to maintain his or her balance.

(6) Trampoline: Let the mentally retarded children jump on a trampoline for about 20 minutes.

(7) Kangaroo jump: Have the mentally retarded child stand in a cloth bag, half squat, put his feet together, and jump forward step by step like a kangaroo, repeating this many times.

(8) Tire Rolling: Have mentally retarded children roll tires on a 1-meter-wide track, making sure the tires do not roll off the road.
