• Hypotonia simply means poor muscle tone. There are many causes.

  Your pediatrician needs to refer your child for assessment and physical therapy to teach you exercises to do to increase muscle tone.

• My youngest had hypotonia in addition to a bunch of other things. He started PT when he was 6 weeks old and was in it until he was 2 1/2. He's a normal active 3 year old now.
