About

Diagnoses like Ehlers-Danlos or hypermobility syndrome can cause looseness to the skin and underlying tissues, as well as increased range of motion to the joints. You might have been one of those kids that could show all your friends how you could put your hands flat on the floor when you bent over, or you could bend your fingers backwards, or hyperextended your elbow. These same symptoms, later in life, can cause back pain, hip pain, pelvic pain, pelvic organ prolapse, painful sex, bladder pain and gastrointestinal dysfunction. The pelvic floor is made up of connective tissue. When this tissue becomes stretched and/or compromised with age, having babies, abdominal surgeries, the looseness of the connective tissue, causes a counter-reaction. Our body, in attempt to compensate for the lack of stability, because we have so much mobility, will begin to over-activate the muscles of the pelvic floor. The body is trying to provide more support. The pelvic floor supports all our organs from above and absorbs the ground forces from below with each step we take. At Integrative Pelvic Health, we are trained to deal with these complexities. We can provide education on how to care for your joints and give support to the muscles that are weak, while providing mobility through soft tissue work, body work, and stretches. We provide WOMEN and MEN with specialized specific treatment to resolve your pelvic health issues. Whether pain, pre-, post-partum, urine or bowel issues, post-prostatectomy, or if you are looking for a smooth delivery or getting your body back to a before-pregnancy state. We will work with you to meet your goals. We are nationally trained, an elite group of providers that excel in clinical excellence, so that you can LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!! Book your appointment today!!

EDS Healthcare in New York

The NYIT EDS/Hypermobility Treatment Center operates in Old Westbury and Central Islip, offering specialized rehabilitation and treatment. Mount Sinai South Nassau Chiari EDS Center in Oceanside focuses on EDS with Chiari malformation. Weill Cornell provides pain management expertise. New York Medicaid covers genetic testing with prior authorization. Wait times at major programs can be 6 months or longer.

Both EDS Centers of Excellence are on Long Island, leaving upstate New York significantly underserved. Patients in Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester, and the Adirondacks face drives of 4-6+ hours to reach these programs. Wait times of 6 months or more are common. Rural upstate access is very limited, and telehealth is important for follow-up care.

Finding Physical Therapy for EDS

When choosing a PT for EDS, ask whether they have experience with hypermobility and use stabilization-first protocols rather than standard stretching routines.
