The medical world often seeks standardized protocols—uniform treatments proven effective for a defined condition. While this works well for straightforward orthopedic injuries, applying a “one-size-fits-all” approach to Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) is not only impractical but potentially harmful.

For individuals living with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), land-based exercise is often a paradoxical challenge: movement is necessary for stability, yet gravity and load often trigger pain, fatigue, and injury. Hydrotherapy (aquatic therapy) offers a vital bridge, leveraging the unique properties of water to create a low-impact, supportive, and proprioceptively […]
