Whether you are navigating hypermobility yourself or supporting someone who is, you will leave with tools you can start using straight away.

Join Paediatric Physiotherapist Blanche Leung for an engaging and supportive session where she’ll cover:

Are There Any Braces or Tools That Can Help My Pain? Discover when tools like braces, splints, orthotics, or compression garments may help, and when focusing on strength-building might be more effective.
What Type of Exercise Can I Do? Blanche will guide you through safe movement principles, pacing strategies, and strength approaches that protect your joints from overload.
Why Am I So Fatigued? Explore how pain and joint instability can contribute to tiredness, and learn techniques for conserving and managing energy.
