Hypotonia is a disorder that causes 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. Recognizing hypotonia, even in early infancy, is usually relatively straightforward, but diagnosing the underlying cause can be difficult and often unsuccessful. The long-term effects of hypotonia on a child’s development and later life depend primarily on the severity of the muscle weakness and the nature of the cause. Some disorders have a specific treatment but the principal treatment for most hypotonia of idiopathic or neurologic cause is physical therapy and/or occupational therapy to help the person compensate for the neuromuscular disability.

Physiotherapy Treatments

I offer bespoke rehabilitation for individuals following complex injuries and polytrauma. 

• Treatments for post-operative patients that present with deteriorating mobility and movement due to failed or complicated surgical procedures.
• Treatments for those individuals that have not have sufficient or appropriate post-operative rehabilitation.

Refers to individuals that have sustained traumatic injuries such as fractures following a car or work place accident. Patients who present with poor patterns of movement, muscle weakness and reduced ability to carry out their day to day activities.

Utilise their movement analysis skills and expertise to create bespoke treatment plans. By implementing hands-on techniques, functional training, as well as strength and conditioning techniques we are able to restore function.
