Good information for our patients with hypermobility. Schroth DC has a location in our Fairfax office.
Hypermobility & Scoliosis: Managing What Stays, Mastering What Moves
Hypermobility doesn’t go away and for many with scoliosis, it becomes a lifelong companion.
Like scoliosis, hypermobility is a condition to be managed, not feared. And one of the most powerful tools in that process is awareness:
☑️Awareness of when you’re slipping back into old postural patterns�
☑️Awareness of how your joints move too much and where you need to build stability�
☑️Awareness of your body in space. Moment to moment, rep to rep
At our clinic, we see hypermobility in its many forms every single day. From generalized joint hypermobility to more complex presentations like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). It’s a common thread woven through the stories of many of our patients. In fact, most of the individuals we work with are hypermobile to some degree, and we’re deeply familiar with the unique challenges that come with it.
That’s where movement training like Schroth becomes so impactful.�It’s not just about correcting alignment, it’s about creating a foundation of awareness, control, and resilience.
It teaches you:
�✅ How to hold your body differently�
✅ How to strengthen where you need support�
✅ How to move with intention instead of compensation�
✅ How to maintain postural integrity through dynamic movements with and without load
The goal? Not perfection—but presence.
�✨ Presence with your body�
✨ Presence in your environment�
✨ Presence in each breath, each rep, each subtle shift that brings you back into control
