[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tone problems do actually generally mean other problems. It can occur on its own but it does mean you should kebab watching for other delays. It means something is off neurologically. Not trying to be doom and gloom but it is what it is. [/quote]

But low tone and weak core are NOT synonymous. My son was late to sit and is therefore on the later end of other things and it's because of his core.[/quote]

I don't know about that. I thought low core strength was low tone.[/quote]

DP.  Two different PTs told us that DS had muscle weakness and a weak core, but was not low tone.  I'm not clear what the difference is, but they were sure.  [/quote]

My child has no tone or core issues. The PT explained that it is proprioception (not strength) that is the issue. So for example rolling late is because they don't like the sensation of rolling, nothing to do with strength or tone. Of course this is just us, your kid could have other issues. [/quote]
