Hey everyone– A reader asked me this today, and this was my response:
As you may know, I also have a hypermobility condition, although I’ve gotten different opinions from specialists about whether it’s EDS or another hypermobility disorder.
I’ve seen people in the Dynamic Neural Retraining System forums say that it helped their EDS symptoms. I don’t think the program is marketed for that, and I know that EDS and hypermobility are not generally believed to be reversible.
However something I’ve learned from my own doctors is that there can be a strong connection between the brain, stress, and our inflammatory response and how we’re able to heal after an injury.
So working on your mind body connection can actually help improve the dysfunctional healing process that hypermobile people experience.
That last why it doesn’t surprise me to see people with EDS say it helped them.
