HOW CAN PHYSIOTHERAPY HELP HYPER MOBILITY SYNDROME?

Some children with hyper mobility syndrome will eventually grow out of the associated problems as the supporting ligaments get stronger over time.Other children may have persiststent  problems and our team of special paediatric physiotherapist can help to reduce the effects of hyper mobility syndrome by:

  • Providing an exercise programme  to strengthen muscles & support the joints.

  • Provide advice on types of appropriate exercise & sports.

  • Advising on appropriate pain management technique such as use of heat or ice.

  • Reducing risk of injury & persistent pain into adult hood.

  • Providing advice on reducing factors which may worsen symptoms such as excessive weight.
