A pain in the hypermobile.....with Jeannie Di Bon.

Jeannie Di Bon, a movement therapist specialising in hypermobility, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and chronic pain has hosted several webinars with us at EDS UK, sharing her wealth of knowledge.

Jeannie kindly put together a series of educational webinars, which we hope to continue in the future, making our way around the different parts of the body! Following the theme of ‘a pain in the hypermobile…’, you can now watch webinars on foot pain and back and pelvic pain.

🦶Foot Pain

In this webinar, Jeannie took a closer look at the form, function and movement of the hypermobile foot. With foot and ankle pain, ‘flat feet’, and ‘collapsed arches’ being common in hypermobility, Jeannie tackled how these issues can be solved. Delving into the possible causes of foot pain, how the foot could be impacting pain further up the body, and why we need a foot tripod to avoid pain, Jeannie used her prop skeleton foot to clearly show the impact these issues can have. Leading on from that, the discussion of exercises to improve the mechanics and strength of the foot was demonstrated.

🗲Back Pain

Moving up the body, Jeannie took a look at the hypermobile back, covering a whole host of topics such as the pathologies of back pain, possible causes for hypermobile back pain, and the importance of alignment. Another well-received and informative webinar, the discussion of the spinal structure and its function, posture and back spasms, and the importance of motor control provided valuable information and insight into the problems patients can face.

How to manage these symptoms taking into consideration how to begin exercising with back pain and building tissue tolerance to avoid flare-ups and core stability was covered with practical and applicable knowledge for attendees to take forward. The webinar covered how other areas - such as pelvic pain and alignment, as well as the feet - can be affected by and also affect the back, the impact they might have, and how to manage this.
