How is congenital myopathy treated?
- Physiotherapy is the main form of support. The main aim is to keep the muscles as active as possible to prevent the formation of 'contractures' (muscle tendon tightness causing restriction in the range of joint movement).
- Good seating and sitting position helps to prevent scoliosis (curvature of the spine).
