A major and common underlying cause of pain in hypermobility is chronic tightness in big movement muscles.

Understanding why this happens helps us resolve the problem and this can significantly reduce pain 😊.

When managing or rehabilitating your hypermobile body, a better understanding of the way the body works can be extremely helpful.
Our understanding of the human body is continually evolving, and that’s why some newer information can sound surprising and even counterintuitive.
But if you have been dealing with the same problem forever and feel like it never changes, it may be a good time to look a bit deeper into why the muscle is tight, or why you’re struggling with the same postural issues, or have the hardest time creating better stability in your body.

Which ones of these sound like a duh! to
you and which ones are surprising?

Nervous system regulation is a must for creating better function and comfort in the hypermobile body. What are your most important practices — or: is this perhaps an aspect that hasn’t been emphasized much in your care?

👉 Slowmetrics is your foundation phase, after you’ve learned the basics of deep joint stabilization, and your entry ticket to safer exercise that your brain and body will actually be ok with.
Later, when you’re ready, you’ll add:
more range
more load
more speed, i.e. loading fast type 2 muscle fibers — because it is functionally important, and we tend to loose the use of these fibers as we age faster than slow muscle fibers.

Navigating the “healthcare” system is hard enough on its own, and harder still if you’re looking for help with a complex situation like a hypermobility-related disorder. There is no single way to make it easy, and no way to make it non- complex, but understanding the landscape can still be an enormous help.

There is a lot of complexity to EDS/HSD. This is only a brief overview.

To take away point is that in order to have success with the treatment of hyper mobility related disorders the approach has to be based on a thorough understanding of the specific nature of the hypermobile body. Approaching it like a “normal” body tends to often end in failure.

What is your experience with treating the various manifestations of hyper mobility in your body?
