Empower Your Movement: Specialized Physical Therapy for Hypermobility Management

Understanding challenges of hypermobility

Hypermobility presents a variety of complex challenges that may impact daily life and your ability to participate in your favorite activities. Here are common challenges of hypermobility that you might be noticing:

  • Joint Pain and Discomfort: Individuals with hypermobility often experience chronic pain in their joints due to excessive range of motion and instability.

  • Increased Risk of Injuries: Hypermobility can lead to a higher likelihood of joint dislocations, sprains, and other injuries, particularly during physical activity.

  • Muscle Weakness: Muscles around hypermobile joints may become weaker due to reliance on joint laxity for movement, leading to imbalances and instability.

  • Fatigue and Low Endurance: People with hypermobility may experience fatigue more quickly due to the additional effort required to stabilize their joints during activities.

  • Postural Issues: Poor posture can arise from compensatory movement patterns, placing extra strain on muscles and ligaments and leading to discomfort.

  • Difficulty with Proprioception: Individuals may struggle with body awareness and spatial orientation, making it challenging to gauge movement and position in space.

  • Impact on Daily Activities: Everyday tasks, such as walking, lifting, or even sitting, can become more difficult due to joint instability and pain, affecting overall quality of life.
