EDS is a connective tissue disorder characterized by skin involvement, musculoskeletal dysfunction like subluxation and dislocations, and other manifestations of tissue fragility.
- It is comorbid with other systemic conditions like POTS and MCAS.
- Under ultrasound elastography, the extracellular matrix is both thickened and the overall tissue quality is uniform in softness.

Fascial Manipulation is a diagnosis and sequence approach in the treatment of fascia develped by Stecco. The approach recognizes the importance of the physiologic balance of the entire system- focusing on the interconnection of the entire musculoskeletal system.

Elastography is an imaging technique that allows visualization of viscoelastic properties like stiffness that is altered in connective tissue disorder like EDS.

In Hypermobility / EDS the overall tissue stiffness in more uniform compared to their normal counterparts.

Prolotherapy is an injection technique that treats the fascial system. Injection is into the enthesis sites- where tendons and ligaments merge with bone. Prolotherapy is an induction therapy that allows your body to heal and grow new collagen.
- Dextrose is usually used.
- Or in EDS tetradecyl may be used with fewer injections.
- PRP can also be used.
- In EDS manipulation is also needed to relocate subluxed/dislocated joints.

FLUSH Technique is Fascial Layer Specific Hydromanipulation. FLUSH technique uses ultrasound guidance and elastography to diagnose and treats specific fascial layers involved in myofascial pain.

Happy Hump Day!
The main hip extensor to make those glute gains is your gluteus maximus.
In order to maximize the effort of exercise, AND prevent pain and injury, it’s important to focus on the full range of motion
.
Here’s what I often see 👀
🔹inadequate hip extension through movements
Often, if you walk around with anterior pelvic tilt, you’ll move with anterior pelvic tilt, your body gets used to being in that position!
.
Rather than smashing into your stomach, breathe into it!
.
🎥 RELEASE WITH GRAVITY 🎥
Today, we’re increasing glute activation and releasing hip flexor restriction through the breath, core stability and focusing on hip extension moving WITH gravity!

PELVIC-SHOULDER LINKS- the concepts of connectivity and global #movement are difficult to conceptualize! Fascial chains have become a popular concept amongst manual therapists and they are an excellent model to understand the concept of “connection” rather than isolation and to see the body as a WHOLE and not a collection of parts.
. . .
#Fascia is the system that binds the body together as a whole and transmits energy and information from one part to the entirety of the structure.
. . .
LH Joseph (2016) showed a direct link between #pelvic motion and it’s effect on the #shoulder. Joseph found unilateral #SIjoint dysfunction altered #myofascial force transmission across oblique sling muscles and caused anterior translation of the contralateral humeral head 📚👩🏫👩⚕️
. . .
In other words: changes on one side of the pelvis can affect the opposite shoulder. This abnormal shoulder position was linked to impingement, injuries of the #rotatorcuff and #labrum.
. . .
Watch how pelvic motion and shoulder girdle motion happen simultaneously.
