Hypermobility/EDS Exercise: Shoulder Mapping and Motor Control Routine

[@FlyinyourSoup]

I swear this channel is a lifesaver.

I wish I had a professional to do this with me. I’m too nervous to do it on my own and do it wrong. I just want to get better….But it feels like so much is wrong that I don’t know where to start anymore. Just going in circles.

Brother this was mad helpful and changed my day to day life so much in such a positive way . Please do a series like this one for low back

[@Thefibroguy]

I’m glad it helped 😀 Is there anything would you like to see in a series for the lower back ?

[@jphanks]

Ooooo that explains sloped shoulders and thoracic outlet syndrome! Thank you! I sleep on my left side and my shoulder blade is definitely not happy.

[@Thefibroguy]

The elevator exercise will be especially important for you then 😀 good luck 💪🏻

My shoulder blades like to sublux. My daughter’s shoulders are super loose. She’s having fun with her collar bones sublux often. EDS is so much fun. If it isn’t my shoulder blades it’s my vertebrae slipping just enough to send my entire spine into a spasm where I can’t move, can’t lift my arms away from my body. Last time all I did was sweep the garage to clean up after the chickens. Ooof.

So sorry to hear that 😔How do you get through the day emotionally like that? I’ve been struggling so hard with losing my mobility and all the subluxations. I try not to let it control my life but it does and emotionally and mentally I really struggle. It’s hard getting support or finding others who really love this and get it 😞

@@Piecesoftheshadow my daughter struggles. She was diagnosed with POTS this spring and is being tested for Gastroparesis in December. She gets frustrated with physically not being able to keep up with friends. She can’t stay up too late too many days in a row without ending up in bed sleeping for 18 to 20 hours and her body basically putting in an enormous amount of pain. When she danced she was ambulatory with a wheelchair. She danced competitively from age 9 - 19. She retired after high school graduation because she could no longer force her way through leaps and was just struggling. She was a beautiful dancer and super talented, but a body that just won’t let her do it anymore. She pushes through days hour by hour sometimes and day by day. People at her school and work are mostly accommodating to her chronic illness, but I think it frustrates everyone. She wanted to be an EMT, but has decided to with medical assistant due to wear and tear EMT can put on a body. I’m sorry to hear you’re struggling. But I do understand. Church youth group tried to pray away her EDS, which annoyed her, so she stopped going. One dance studio she was at didn’t believe her and treated her poorly because of it. The last two were accommodating and one even would correct other studios who snarked about her being able to dance but needing a wheelchair. Invisible illnesses suck. I hope things get better for you.

@@tracyhue23 Thank to for sharing this with me. I’m so sorry to hear about your daughter’s suffering 😔 My heart goes out to her and I deeply empathize. What it takes away from you and the amount of constant self grieving you experience is a lot and most people don’t understand or don’t even try to. I hope more quality of life finds her with time, just as I hope for myself. One day at a time. She’s very fortunate to have a loving and supportive mother like you through her health journey.
