This comprehensive guide examines the role of fascial dysfunction in hypermobility disorders such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder. It applies cutting-edge research on fascia pathology to the symptom-focused sphere of HDS/EDS, allowing practitioners to increase diagnostic accuracy and leading to effective treatment regimens for patients. Chapters include assessment techniques, including imaging methods, and integrative care approaches that blend holistic wellbeing with movement therapy, manual therapy, injection therapy, and more. By understanding how fascial abnormalities contribute to joint instability, connective tissue problems and chronic pain, practitioners can work on the root causes of patients' issues and provide targeted treatment options.
Essential reading for medical professionals, manual therapists, movement practitioners, or anyone looking for a fresh perspective on hypermobility disorders, this book will deepen your understanding of fascia and strengthen your practice.
