Hypotonia Support Group

Hypotonia is a condition of abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle), often involving reduced muscle strength. Hypotonia is not a specific medical disorder, but a potential manifestation of many different diseases and disorders that affect motor nerve control by the brain or muscle strength.

hi JacobW, my son has hypotonia as well. He is not a teenager, he is 7, but i was hoping we should chat a little, so that i can have an idea of basically what to expect as he gets older, what are some of your triumphs and challenges etc.

if youre up for this, you can reply, or if youre not, thats ok too...wishing you a wonderful day!

JacobW. My daughter is 13 years old and was diagnosed with hypotonia from day 1 also. In fact, she is at PT right now. She would love to connect with another teen struggling with this condition. I hope the 2 of you can find a way to support each other
