How To Take Your Life Back From Ehlers- Danlos Syndrome

This book was written to teach people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) how to systematically progress through an exercise program to allow their muscles to support many joint subluxations commonly associated with this genetic disorder. This will allow people living with EDS to have less pain throughout their body. The exercise protocol outlined in this book was developed by a physical therapist from Rhode Island, Kevin Muldowney, MSPT, who has been treating people with EDS since 2005. Kevin has lectured to numerous EDS support groups, as well as, at the Ehlers-Danlos National Foundation Learning Conference.

Kevin and Kathleen own two physical therapy clinics in Rhode Island that specialize in treating people with EDS. All of the physical therapists at both clinics were trained by Kevin to use specific manual therapy techniques and the exercise program outlined in this book to guide people, living with EDS, to decrease their pain and increase their function of daily life. Hopefully this book will serve as a guide for you to live a better quality of life while having EDS.
