Hypopraxia (ancient Greek ὑπό “under” + πρᾰξις “action”) is a pathological condition characterized by a decrease in a person’s motor activity, which manifests itself in slowness, lethargy, awkwardness, insufficient coordination of movements, as well as a decrease in muscle tone.
Hypopraxia can be observed in some forms of neuroses, psychopathy, in organic diseases of the central nervous system, such as Parkinson's disease, Huntington's chorea, amyotrophic sclerosis, cerebral syphilis and other diseases.
Hypopraxia (or Hypocallicrasia) is a partial or complete absence of movement of the arms and legs. This problem is often called “difficulty making small movements” due to the person's lack of interest in such actions. The patient has a feeling of desire to move, but it is difficult or impossible to perform simple actions - clench his hands, turn his head to the side, to some extent raise his legs. Very often, people suffering from hypopraxia do not consider their condition a serious problem until something prompts them to move and requires some effort. It becomes obvious that even the most insignificant motor act is associated with some difficulty for them. The muscles tense, but after a few moments they spasm, the arm or leg becomes motionless, or the patient shakes the limbs. Prolonged lack of physical activity increases signs of lethargy and general lethargy.
Hypoplexy is a medical term for a state of decreased activity that a person may experience. This condition can manifest itself to varying degrees and in different areas of life. In this article we will look at two variants of hypoplexy: a state of increased activity and a state of pronounced passivity, hypoplexy and ways to combat these conditions.
State of decreased activity Hypopraxia is a state of decreased physical activity and weakened muscle tone. With it, patients may perform household activities or perform work duties with difficulty, creating cognitive and psychological discomfort in them. People are not able to determine their needs - a state of fatigue, overwork. Over time, hypopraxia is diagnosed due to severe disturbances in postural reflexes, coordination of movements, changes in muscle effort,
