Alex Minten is a physical therapist with over 13 years of clinical experience. He specializes in treating diagnoses of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and surrounding muscles, neck pain, headaches, postural dysfunction, vertigo/dizziness, and conditions associated with hypermobility syndromes such as upper cervical or craniocervical instability (CCI). Alex uses an evidence-based approach to address not just the symptoms but the root causes of his patients’ problems and ensure a successful long-term outcome. He also has special interest in the contribution of sleep and the airway to TMD development. Over the years, Alex has worked with many patients with hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and realizes the importance of short-term symptom management and long-term stabilization and function. Given that almost 70% of those with generalized hypermobility or EDS have temporomandibular disorder related pain and/or neck pain and headaches, Alex believes that a thorough understanding of a patient’s contributing impairments co-morbidities is key to ensuring long-term improvement. Alex has completed extensive continuing education on the evaluation and treatment of disorders of the TMJ, head, and neck including education specific to hypermobility/instability through multiple renowned organizations including: American Academy of Orofacial Pain University of Minnesota School of Dentistry Craniofacial Therapy Academy (CRAFTA) Academy of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy Myopain Seminars

Balance Within - Integrative Physical Therapy - Delafield
We are a small private practice Physical Therapy clinic integrating the best of evidence-based practice with holistic approaches. Many of our EDS patients find their way to us due to our Advanced specialization in John Barnes’ Myofascial Release work as many of these patients respond wonderfully to this gentle, long-lasting relief provided by this approach. However due to our first-hand experience with EDS with several of our family members and many patients over the years, we also know how important a gentle stabilization program is for these individuals. We are proud of our many successful ‘graduates’ that have moved from a life where they hurt all over, were limited in function, felt like their whole body was ‘falling apart’ and very worried about their future, moving into being able to sleep and function again, to regain strength and to be hopeful for the future once more. Every person’s journey is a bit different. Some need pelvic floor and jaw pain/headache specialization support. Others need ongoing care. Some graduate fully and are able to keep up with their stability on their own once we have done the hands-on work to get them feeling better. We are grateful to go along with you on the journey, to be a friend, a sounding board, a resource and help however we can along your way to help you meet your goals. With 15 and 20 years of experience as Doctors of Physical Therapy, Doctors Jereme & Sarah Trunk work together as a team to truly get to the root cause of your challenges. We have successfully treated thousands of bodies head to toe and love working with people who think that they have tried everything, as we can almost always ‘think outside the box’ and find other things to address & other avenues to pursue in a new way. We offer free consultations as we are firm believers that no one can ever feel confident that they are making the right decision until they have all the information needed. We hope to be a resource for you. Please do take us up on our offer for you to ‘pick our brains’ as we very likely can help: 262.264.8701 We also encourage you to check out our website and our many Google Reviews over the years: www.BalanceWithinPT.com

Effective Artistry (Serving Illinois and Wisconsin via Telehealth) - Madison
Is changing your life in the midst of contending with chronic illness feeling impossible? Perhaps you haven’t been believed by doctors. Perhaps you are exploring the intersection of the mind and body, of neurodiversity and EDS, and you’re looking for a therapist who understands. I’m ready to do the hard work with you: to face your fears, build a life that is sustainable, improve your relationships, collaborate with medical doctors to improve your physical health, and bring back parts of yourself that you miss, your je ne sais quoi. I am here, as your grounded guide, to help navigate you through exciting, terrifying, and bold life changes, with the parallel tectonic global upheaval under our feet. I will be radically present with you in your deepest hopes and fears. You may feel lonely, misunderstood, and lost, even though people in your life perceive you to be “put together.” It can be deeply overwhelming and also courageous to build a life that you know, deep down, you deserve. One where you can unmask, tap into your creative potential, recover from burnout, and be liberated to share your unique voice with the world. Having me beside you will help you stay steady and purposeful through radical, never-ending change. I believe in the power of community, and will help you build an honest, loving, supportive community. I help clients build more sustainable, joyful lives. Clients are grateful to have done the work to build strong relationships, exciting careers, and thriving creative pursuits. I will help you feel energized as you get in alignment with your inner wisdom. The voice inside of you that has been trying to guide you, but you haven’t had the tenacity to follow. The wise part of you that will accompany you for the rest of your life. As a neurodivergent person who specializes in working with neurodivergent folks (AuDHD, ADHD, autism, misdiagnosed folks, late-diagnosed, self-diagnosed), I am here to help you process the intricacies of your experience. Some of the topics I cover with neurodiverse clients are helping to foster special interest joy, exploring unmasking, empathizing with the unique struggles that come from your neurodivergence, tailoring your daily life to your sensory needs, or exploring the biases and judgements from people, society, and the environment working against you. I approach my own healing journey as it intersects with being as a therapist as: if I am willing to do the work, gain the skills, and have the courage to show up authentically in the world for myself, I gain the knowledge (intellectual, intuitive, and embodied) to guide you to do the same. Through my diverse experience in the mental health field, I have learned what helps clients grow as well as what holds clients back. I now practice neurodiversity-affirming therapy, an approach that transcends pathologies. In my practice as a therapist, I do not consider the psychology of any of my clients as “disordered”, “sick”, or “broken.” I believe this is the most effective way to approach mental health in our modern world. I believe in the importance of developing our personal philosophy, or the beliefs that influence our behavior, emotions, and thoughts. In my personal and professional journey, I explore existential crises, relationships, communication, neurodiversity, queerness, politics, liberation, authenticity, consciousness, giftedness, creativity, trauma, spirituality, purpose, holistic wellness, and the mind-body connection. I am happy to explore any or all of these topics with you. I personally navigate and help clients find a path to sustainable physical and mental health. I have built a network of like-minded practitioners for the mind and body that do their best to listen to clients, believe clients, and seek creative solutions to address their struggles. I find joy and purpose in my job. I am passionate about integrating my path as an artist (former opera singer and photographer, ceramic artist, singer/songwriter, and writer) with my path as a therapist. I am proud to provide telehealth in the United States in both the state of Wisconsin and Illinois. I am excited to explore all the facets of you. Reach out. I am happy to help.

Vantage Health and Fitness Collective
I teach yoga for Bendy People on the first Sunday of every month at Vantage Health and Fitness Collective. The yoga classes are all about feeling into our bodies and learning how to adapt yoga for a hypermobile body. Spoiler alert! The emphasis will NOT be on stretching! It will be on stability and proprioceptive awareness. I teach in a trauma informed way, and I also add a healthy dose of healing shame, finding self love, and faith in ourselves. I also care for people’s bodies through Thai bodywork. I specialize in Thai for Bendy people. I have specific ways of supporting them and knowing what to stretch and what not to stretch, and how to make them feel better.
