Why Moving Feels Unstable with Hypermobility — and How “Zone Moving” Can Rebuild Control
People with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility often feel unstable, clumsy, or at risk of injury — not from weakness, but from how the body conserves energy. “Zone Moving” is a gentle strategy that retrains movement to begin from strong central joints (shoulders/hips) before the smaller ones. This approach improves stability, reduces subluxations, and helps create safer, more confident movement patterns.
