How to STOP Hip and Knee Pain If You're Hypermobile (hEDS /HSD)

Описание: Living with hypermobility often means dealing with hip, knee, ankle, or foot pain that makes even simple daily tasks feel harder than they should. If you have hEDS or HSD, you already know the frustration of trying to stay strong without triggering flare-ups or setbacks. This video is designed to give you practical, safe, and cost-effective tools to start improving your stability, confidence, and strength.

In this video, you’ll learn:

Why it’s important to build a foundation with mat-based exercises before moving into standing work

Simple, inexpensive equipment (like mirrors, dowels, and steps) that make rehab safer and more effective

How to improve alignment and proprioception to reduce joint collapse and prevent injury

Step-by-step progressions for forward and lateral step-ups that build functional stability
