Remote Hypermobility Physiotherapy
Helping Patients Across the UK
Living with hypermobility can be exhausting. Pain, fatigue, flare-ups, and joint instability can make everyday activities a challenge. For many people across the UK, accessing specialist physiotherapy support locally isn’t always possible and travelling long distances when you’re already in pain is the last thing you need.
That’s why I offer remote physiotherapy for hypermobility syndrome and related conditions. Whether you’re a student at university, a busy professional or a parent managing family life, you can now access specialist care from the comfort of your own home, wherever you are in the UK.

What Is Remote Hypermobility Physiotherapy UK?
Remote physiotherapy for hypermobility (sometimes called online or virtual physiotherapy) is an effective way of receiving specialist care through secure video calls.
During your sessions, I will:
-
Take a detailed history of your symptoms and lifestyle.
-
Guide you through simple assessments on camera to understand how your body moves.
-
Create a tailored exercise and recovery plan that suits your daily life.
-
Support you in pacing, posture, and fatigue management.
📌 Evidence shows that online physiotherapy can be just as effective as in-person treatment, especially for conditions like hypermobility where ongoing support, education, and tailored exercise matter more than manual therapy alone.
Why Choose Remote Physiotherapy Over Local Services?
Not every physiotherapist has experience with hypermobility spectrum disorders or Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). In fact, many patients tell me they struggled for years to find someone who truly understood their condition.
Remote physiotherapy gives you access to specialised care wherever you are in the UK.
Benefits include:
-
Specialist knowledge: Targeted expertise in hypermobility-related pain, fatigue, and flare-ups.
-
Convenience: Sessions from home without needing to travel.
-
Continuity: Ongoing support even if you move cities (ideal for university students and professionals).
-
Flexibility: Fit sessions around work, family, or flare-ups.
💡 You don’t need to settle for general physio when you can access hypermobility-specific care nationwide.
Who Can Benefit from Remote Hypermobility Physiotherapy?
I work with patients from across the UK, including:
-
Students – learning how to manage hypermobility related joint pain and fatigue while studying and living independently.
-
Busy professionals – coping with long hours at a desk or standing, often with limited time for exercise.
-
Parents – balancing their own pain and fatigue with family responsibilities.
-
Young adults with hEDS or HSD – looking for guidance on safe activity and exercise.
-
People in rural or underserved areas – where specialist support isn’t easily accessible.
👉 If you’ve been told “just do general exercises” but found they don’t work for your body, this is for you.
Common Symptoms & Challenges That Can Be Helped
Hypermobility can affect people in different ways, but some of the most common issues include:
-
Joint pain and instability – frequent sprains, “giving way,” or aching joints.
-
Muscle fatigue and weakness – difficulty keeping up with friends, colleagues, or family.
-
HMS related flare-ups – unpredictable days when pain or exhaustion take over.
-
Anxiety around movement – fear of injury leading to reduced activity.
-
Postural and ergonomic difficulties – particularly with desk-based work or studying.
What to Expect from Your Remote Physiotherapy Sessions
Every online physiotherapy session is personalised, but here's how the process usually works:
-
Free 30-Minute Consultation – we’ll discuss your concerns and goals to see if remote physiotherapy is right for you.
-
Initial Assessment – a 60-minute video call where I’ll review your history, check your movement patterns, and identify key problem areas.
-
Personalised Treatment Plan – I’ll design an exercise programme, pacing strategy, and lifestyle adjustments tailored to your symptoms and energy levels.
-
Ongoing Support – follow-up sessions to review progress, adapt your plan, and give you tools to manage flare-ups.
-
Most patients benefit from regular check-ins every 2–4 weeks, but the schedule is flexible around your needs.
Evidence-Based Online Physiotherapy for Hypermobility Syndrome
Physiotherapy is one of the most effective treatments for hypermobility syndrome, but it isn’t just about exercise. My approach combines:
-
Evidence-based exercise therapy – to improve strength and joint control.
-
Pain and fatigue management – strategies for pacing, recovery, and flare-up prevention.
-
Postural advice and ergonomic support – especially for students and office workers.
-
Mental wellbeing support – recognising the link between chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, and low mood.
📖 For example, research by Barton & Bird (2013) and others has shown that structured exercise improves physical function and reduces pain in hypermobility patients.
💡 My 25+ years of clinical experience (including MSc Rehabilitation Science, specialist NHS roles, and private practice) ensures a comprehensive, whole-person approach to care.

Is online physiotherapy really effective for hypermobility?
Yes, the most important parts of hypermobility physiotherapy are exercise prescription, pacing, and education - all of which can be delivered online.
Do I need special equipment at home?
No, most plans use bodyweight, household items, or simple resistance bands. If specialist equipment would help, I’ll guide you on affordable options.
Can you help with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS)?
Yes, I regularly work with patients with hypermobile EDS (hEDS) and other connective tissue disorders.
What happens if I have a flare-up before a session?
No problems, sessions can be adapted to suit your energy levels. We’ll also cover flare-up management strategies to help you cope better when they happen.
Is this service available across the whole UK?
Yes, I work with patients from England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland via secure video calls.
