Inspira Physical Therapy
At Inspira, we understand the challenges that individuals with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD) face. These conditions are characterized by joint hypermobility, connective tissue issues, and a wide range of symptoms that can affect various systems in the body. Our dedicated team of physical therapists is committed to providing specialized care and support to help patients manage their conditions and improve their quality of life. Comprehensive Evaluation & Tailored Treatment Plans When you choose Inspira for EDS/HSD physical therapy, our first step is to conduct a comprehensive evaluation. We take the time to understand each patient’s specific symptoms, joint hypermobility, and any related complications they may be experiencing. This assessment allows us to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses individual needs and goals. Our physical therapists are experienced in working with patients with EDS and HSD, and we understand that each patient’s condition is unique. Physical Therapy at Inspira Strengthening exercises, joint stabilization techniques, and manual therapy methods such as massage and proprioceptive functional manual therapy. The integration of Winback Tecar Therapy further enhances our treatment options, providing advanced technology to support tissue healing and pain relief. Our specialized Muldowney method focuses on personalized rehabilitation plans tailored to each individual’s needs and goals. We also incorporate Pilates Equipment Integration and Kinesiotaping to optimize movement patterns and support joint stability. In addition to the physical aspects of our treatments, we prioritize lifestyle modifications and education, helping patients identify pain triggers and adopt safe movement practices in their daily lives. Furthermore, promoting good sleep hygiene is a crucial aspect of our approach, recognizing the importance of restful sleep in facilitating the body’s natural healing processes. Through this comprehensive and holistic approach, we aim to empower our patients to achieve lasting pain relief, improved function, and an enhanced quality of life. Strengthening and Stabilizing Joints One of the primary goals of physical therapy for EDS/HSD is to strengthen and stabilize the affected joints. Hypermobility and joint instability can lead to pain, subluxations, and dislocations. Our therapists employ targeted exercises and techniques to build strength in the muscles surrounding the joints, providing greater support and reducing the risk of injuries. Pain Management Strategies Chronic pain is a common challenge for individuals with EDS and HSD. Our physical therapists are well-versed in various pain management techniques. By addressing pain, we aim to improve overall comfort and functionality, enabling patients to engage in daily activities with greater ease.

Chris Nadler, PhD, LP
My name is Chris, and I am a therapist and psychoanalyst. I have EDS and work with people with EDS. Being in therapy or psychoanalysis, with an analyst who understands EDS, can be helpful in giving you the clarity of what is what, and helping you trust yourself, helping you to access medical care, and helping you to navigate medical settings where you have been dismissed and gaslit. You may be one of the many people with EDS who have been told that your bodily symptoms are “in your head,”—by both medical doctors and therapists. I work with people who have been told that their physical distress is psychological in origin, people who have tried their hardest to address their trauma and stress but haven’t found enough—or any—relief for their physical symptoms, people who have started to believe that what they really need to do is just work harder and harder. Over time, not only are there unresolved medical issues, but the physical symptoms can actual complicate your therapeutic work because if they don’t resolve, you start to feel like a failure for not working hard enough to resolve your trauma. Does this sound familiar? This ultimately makes it hard to do actual trauma work and hard to get the right medical care. Can you tell the difference between a flare-up and a period of depression? The difference between a mast cell reaction and a panic attack? Psychoanalytic work with me will give you the internal clarity both to address your actual trauma (because most likely you do have some of that too, if not just from dealing with the medical system), and give you the strength in your sense of self to know what is not your trauma.

Therapy Trainee at Golden Psychology (NYC/NY) Sliding Scale Available; Virtual Therapy Available Taking on new clients for 2025-2026 year Autism, Disability, and Chronic Illness Affirming Therapy from a Lived Experience Practitioner Evidenced-Based Therapy, Tailored Therapy, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), + Offered Background in Affirming Disability Research, Public Health, Social Work, Advocacy, and Education I approach therapy as a sacred space for the process of returning home to ourselves. As a late-diagnosed autistic, multi-disabled, chronically ill person, I’m deeply familiar with navigating systems not built with bodies, minds, and ways of being like mine in mind. I know what it takes—to show up (or not), to exist, to have made it to where you are. I’m here to meet you there and to carve out a space-time in your world that is just that: yours. That might look like lying down, tending to your body/pain, stimming, shifting the sensory environment, exploring creative or nonverbal ways of processing, or sitting with grief, contradiction, or uncertainty. Maybe all of that. Maybe none. There’s no one right way to be here. I don’t see your struggles as personal failures, but as signs of surviving systems like ableism, racism, poverty, stigma, and gender and sexual oppression. My work is grounded in collective liberation, disability justice, and the belief in your inherent worth, complexity, and wholeness. It would be my deep honor to be someone with whom you feel safe to bring every part of yourself—your joy, grief, contradictions, silliness, and shame. I want to see you flourish. Golden Psychology is a NYC-based group practice providing therapy +identity-affirming care. Learn more at <https://golden-psychology.com/>

The Broadway PT
We are a private PT clinic based near Union Square. We specialize in those with hypermobility who still want to have a highly functional life. Because of our background in strength and conditioning, our approach is more about finding what our patients and clients CAN do and what we can IMPROVE rather than on their limitations. We also work with arts workers/performing artists, so we are accustomed to athletic and artistic individuals. We believe there is always a way to improve and that individuals can be empowered by movement. We provide more than just rehabilitation so that our patients and clients can lead healthier, happier lives. All the PTs in the space work with those with hypermobility and we co-treat often for a team-based approach. We like to help people go from fragile to powerful, from broken to resilient, and from trapped to hopeful.
