Low tone

Question: Aloha Dr Luc You commented on 'Low Muscle Tone' in a previous
question, ( a girl had such low tone she could not walk at 3 yrs of age ).
Compared to that my son ( 10 ) has only a little bit of low tone, mostly
seen as poor posture and sticking out of shoulder blades. However he does
have very much hyper mobile joints, elbows especially are hyper mobile, but
also wrists, shoulders and hips. All the other joints are 'loose' and since
he does lots of sports he winds up misaligning and overstretching them .
Does this type of hypermobility fall under 'low muscle tone' ? Or do I have
to look at this differently? Are we looking at the sycotic miasm? He has
been treated homeopathically for the last four years with very good results
with Phosphorus (constitutional) and Tuberculinum with the result of him
being much more healthy, less allergies and MUCH better behavior and
cognitive function. He still has poor short term memory, poor sequencing,
poor small motor skills, hypermobile joints, on the bright side he is a
loving and intellegent boy, very creative, outgoing and social and also very
intuitive. Any idea is appriciated, thank you and best wishes, Helga


Answer: whenI read this description of your son indeed it fits together
constitution wise with the low tone of muscles. For instance the
constitution Calc carb has all of the above: low tone and always hyper lax
ligaments. They make me jealous in yoga because they bent in every direction
but they don't always have the stamina unless they build themselves up.What
you describe I thinkis not at all a phospgorus child. Tuberculinum can be
very helpful bo doubt because it is a very psoric remedy. Still too many
symptoms left of course. Calc c children are very loving and family
oriented. Great characters!
