Clegg and Guest Physical Therapy
About
Connective Tissue Disorders at Clegg & Guest PT. Connective tissue disorders, such a Marfan or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, cause systemic joint laxity of varying severity. Joint laxity leads to instability and pain. Stan has produced a unique training program in which clients learn to protectively posture and to actively stabilize the joints in safe positions throughout their various daily activities, including sport participation. At CGPT, we understand that living with hypermobility/Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) comes with unique challenges. Our physical therapists bring more than just professional expertise-they have personal experience with hypermobility themselves, allowing them to provide compassionate, informed care. We understand the complexities of EDS, including co-existing conditions such as Dysautonomia, including Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), brain fog, and fatigue. We take a holistic approach to help manage symptoms. Both Stan Guest, PT, FAAOMPT, OCS and Melissa Scheck, MPT have extensive experience treating these disorders. They both personally live with a connective tissue disorder and experience the daily struggle to maintain an active lifestyle with minimal pain. Our expert team of physical therapists specializes in providing comprehensive care tailored to individuals managing these conditions. With a deep knowledge of hypermobility-related issues, we focus on helping build strength, improve joint stability, and enhance quality of life.
