About
Outpatient Physical Therapy focusing on holistic management of every patient. Advanced manual techniques utilized to assist in pain management to advance function with support from neuromuscular retraining and strengthening exercises for home program. My goal is to empower the patient to manage symptoms as independently as possible, knowing support is accessible when needed.
EDS Healthcare in Wisconsin
Wisconsin has no EDS Society Center of Excellence. The nearest is Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. IU Health's EDS & HSD Clinic in Indianapolis is also accessible. Mayo Clinic Rochester is closest for northeastern Wisconsin patients. The Wisconsin Association of Genetic Counselors is active and can connect patients with in-state genetic evaluation resources. UW Health in Madison has genetics services.
Wisconsin patients must travel out of state for dedicated EDS care. Milwaukee patients are about 5 hours from Indianapolis, and western Wisconsin patients can reach Mayo Clinic Rochester in 3-4 hours. The Wisconsin Association of Genetic Counselors can help locate in-state genetic evaluation services to start the diagnostic process.
Finding Orthopedic / Surgery for EDS
Ask how many EDS patients the surgeon has operated on and whether they use modified wound closure techniques to account for tissue fragility and slower healing.
