version KIDD
Syndrome KISS-Induced
Dysgnosia and Dyspraxia = KIDD- Dysgnosia
= problems with cognition (information processing)
- Dyspraxia
= impairment of the organisation of movement, resulting in problems performing
previously learned tasks, clumsiness
- Also
known as KISS-induced Dysfunctions = KID
KIDD
syndrome is a long-term consequence of untreated KISS syndrome.
Because
children do not "grow out of" the problems caused by misalignment of
the cervical vertebrae, and because the effects of untreated KISS syndrome on
development can be far-reaching, it is important that treatment is sought as soon
as possible.
KIDD
syndrome can result in: - headaches/migraines
- weak or altered
postural control
- unusual
gait
- poor posture
- frequent
stumbles/falls
- poor
performance in sports
- coordination
problems and poor motor skills
- gross
motor skills --> riding a bike, balancing
- ine
motor skills --> handwriting, drawing and crafts, doing up buttons
- learning
difficulties and concentration problems in school
- restlessness,
fidgeting
- hyperactivity/daydreaming
-->
symptoms similar to ADS/ADHS
- poor
social integration
- delayed
speech development
- emotional
problems
- frustration-->
irritability--> impatience--> aggression
- problems
with reading and writing
- difficulties
falling asleep and/or sleeping through the night
A
child, teenager or adult often develops avoidance strategies to conceal these
deficits: - refusal
to take part in activities
- unusual
behaviour patterns
In
adult life, untreated KIDD syndrome can lead to the following complications:
- problems
with the cervical spine
- chronic
back pain
- slipped
disc
- tinnitus
(ringing in the ears)
- migraines
- problems
with balance
- problems
with movement
- dizziness
