Should you be seen for hypermobility?
Ask yourself:
- Can you now [or could you ever] place your hands flat on the floor without bending your knees?
- Can you now [or could you ever] bend your thumb to touch your forearm?
- As a child, did you amuse your friends by contorting your body into strange shapes or could you do the splits?
- As a child or teenager, did your kneecap or shoulder dislocate on more than one occasion?
- Do you consider yourself “double-jointed”?
Answering yes to two or more of these questions suggests hypermobility. A physiotherapy assessment can help identify areas of instability, develop strategies to improve control and strength, and provide guidance for safe, sustainable movement.
Are you dealing with a chronic condition that may benefit from physiotherapy?
- Have you been experiencing pain, fatigue, or physical symptoms for more than 3 months?
- Do you frequently sprain, dislocate, or sublux joints?
- Do you have muscle fatigue and poor endurance?
- Do you experience digestive issues, dizziness, or autonomic symptoms?
- Have difficulty with coordination, balance, or posture?
- Want to move more comfortably, confidently, and sustainably?
IF you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may benefit from working with Kara. Book an assessment with her to discuss you health journey to date and build a plan tailored to your body - even if you don’t have a formal diagnosis yet
