Hypermobility Strengthening Program

Welcome to our Hypermobility Strengthening Program.

Sound familiar?

  • I have frequent strains and sprains.
  • My muscles, tendons and ligaments keep getting injured.
  • My joints feel unstable and it is tough for me to keep them from dislocating.
  • I have pain in many places, including feet, hips, wrists and neck.
  • My joint range of motion is excessive and I have coordination problems.
If these are familiar to you, then you may have hypermobility. The good news? You’re not alone!  Due to multiple body parts and painful areas, many places have a tough time making you better. But, you can make a huge improvement in your quality of life with our hypermobility strengthening program!

Book hypermobility Consult

A detailed musculoskeletal exam that contributes to your personalized therapy plan.

We start with three phases of our Hypermobility Strengthening Exam: Neck Control, Trunk Control and Core Control. This exam is done in a private room with you and your therapist. The Exam identifies weak areas, asymmetries, and imbalances. This provides us with your overall muscular performance to uncover the underlying “why”.

Craniocervical Stability Testing

This is a series of tests and evaluations used to assess the functioning of deep stabilizer muscles of the cervical spine.  This tells us how your neck can “hold up to” being upright all day long, its relationship to posture and symptoms of neck pain, dizziness, headaches and even POTS.

4 Corners Assessment

This is a series of tests examining if you are able to properly activate and control scapula and pelvic stabilizers.  This will help us assess your current trunk control and develop a symmetry plan.

Core and Pelvis Analysis

This is a series of tests examining if you are able to properly activate your core. This may involve a pelvic floor exam, if necessary.  This will help us assess your current deep core stabilizers and develop a proper stability plan.
