Hypotonia simply means decreased muscle tone and is often observed at birth or during infancy. Some early signs your child may have Hypotonia is they feel limp or floppy when being carried. As they grow, common signs also include “W” sitting or slouching when seated at a table.
“W” sitting increases a child’s base of support and is often used as a preferred posture to allow for minimal muscular activation, as the child rests on skeletal structures. This can lead to increased risks of skeletal structure change with development causing complications with age.
Slouching may also be a sign of hypotonia as it requires more effort for a child with hypotonia to complete functional and physical tasks, e.g. sitting upright in a chair, maintaining an upright head posture against gravity can be fatiguing, especially by the end of the day!
If you require support for Hypotonia, chat to your GP or a Physiotherapist today.

Our Story
Alliance Rehabilitation was formed as a collaboration between experienced health professionals to deliver innovative, quality, effective, efficient, and safe goal orientated rehabilitation programs to North Queensland. With a vision to be a truly interdisciplinary service of the highest standard that could make a difference and achieve positive outcomes for those with the greatest and most complex needs. To achieve this, Alliance Rehabilitation has one of the largest interdisciplinary health teams in the region, including Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, Exercise Physiologists, Social Workers, Psychologists and Neuropsychologist, Accredited Practising Dietitians & Nutritionists, Nurses and Doctors.
With the rollout of the NDIS many participants who journeyed with Alliance Rehabilitation from acute care back into the community asked if they could continue with Alliance Rehabilitation under the NDIS. This made a great deal of sense to the Directors as continuity of care and building a successful relationship with participants has always been a vital component of a successful service and achieving best outcomes; so over the past year Alliance Rehabilitation has invested in developing an NDIS service that meets the same exacting quality standards and innovative approach to practice as all other Alliance Rehabilitation programs and has begun to serve the wider community as an NDIS provider.
Innovation is a word often mentioned at Alliance Rehabilitation as the service was the first in Australia to operate a full Tyromotion Robotic and Computer Assisted Therapy suite and still the only of its kind in Queensland; the suite is a state of the art approach to upper limb therapy, maintenance and cognitive rehabilitation which makes therapy fun, effective and encourages greater outcomes. Alliance Rehabilitation is also the only service in Townsville to maintain a professional driving simulator to assist participants in their goal to return to driving as quickly and safely as possible under the guidance of Alliance Rehabilitation’s Occupational Therapy Driving Assessors.
Alliance Rehabilitation is responsive to local community needs; an example of which is the service’s new short-term specialist disability and health accommodation facility under development in Townsville, due for completion this year. The facility will assist participants return to the community, have respite or transition to their own long-term accommodation. Services in the facility will be tailored to suit individual needs, under the principals of choice and control, along with the ability for carers and family to stay with participants in the modern, state of the art, LHA Platinum level dwellings.
