hypokinesia
Hypokinesia refers to decreased bodily movement.〔http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/bb/neuro/neuro03/web1/ljackson.html〕 One of the two categories of movement disorders, hypokinesia is characterized by a partial or complete loss of muscle movement due to a disruption in the basal ganglia. Patients with hypokinetic disorders like Parkinson's disease experience muscle rigidity and an inability to produce movement. It is also associated with mental health disorders and prolonged inactivity due to illness, amongst other diseases.
The other category of movement disorder resulting from damage to the basal ganglia, hyperkinesia, features an exaggeration of unwanted motion, like twitching or writhing in Huntington's disease or Tourette syndrome.〔Kolb, B. Whishaw, I. (2011) An Introduction to Brain and Behavior, 373.〕
