[quote=Anonymous]I'm by no means an expert on this, but my DD has somewhat low tone (I would be willing to bet I do too). I took her for a PT eval as a preschooler and was told that tone runs on a continuum from extremely high (which isn't good either) to extremely low, and normalcy means being somewhere in the middle. We were told our kid had low tone but not low enough to warrant therapy. In her case, she has reached all her milestones but did it late, and clearly will never be an athlete. For instance, even though she swims really well, she is very slow in the water. She also has a somewhat arched back and slightly protruding belly. I'm assuming that if your child isn't receiving therapy, it's because that's been ruled unnecessary. Otherwise, you might want to seek an eval.[/quote]
