If you’re struggling with joint instability, chronic pain, or frequent flare-ups due to hypermobility or Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), specialized care can make a significant difference. At Highland Spine + Sport, we provide stability-focused chiropractic and sports rehabilitation in Roanoke, Virginia, designed specifically for people with hypermobile joints and connective tissue disorders.
Our approach is different. Rather than forcing flexibility, we focus on building control, strength, and long-term joint stability.
Hypermobility disorders and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome affect the connective tissues that support your joints, ligaments, and muscles. This often results in:
Because traditional stretching and aggressive manipulation can make symptoms worse, treatment must be tailored to improve stability rather than mobility.
Stability-Based Chiropractic Care
We use gentle, precise chiropractic adjustments designed to improve joint positioning and nervous system function without over-mobilizing already unstable joints. This helps reduce pain while protecting long-term joint integrity.
Corrective Exercise & Core Stability Training
Our Roanoke chiropractic clinic emphasizes controlled strength, posture, and deep core activation. These techniques improve joint protection during daily life, workouts, and sports.
Soft Tissue Therapy for Hypermobility Pain
We use targeted soft tissue techniques such as dry needling and myofascial release to reduce muscular guarding and tension without destabilizing your joints.
Progressive Strength-Based Rehabilitation
We build gradual strength programs designed to increase tendon resilience, improve neuromuscular control, and help you safely return to the activities you love.
We commonly work with patients in the Roanoke Valley and surrounding areas including Salem, Vinton, and Cave Spring who experience:
Most traditional pain care focuses on improving flexibility and loosening tight structures. For hypermobile individuals, this often makes symptoms worse. Because the ligaments are already too lax, the body relies heavily on muscles and the nervous system to create stability.
We specialize in working with active individuals and patients who want more than temporary relief. Our approach is:
You don’t have to live in constant fear of flare-ups. You can move confidently again with the right support and guidance.
We also commonly coordinate care with providers managing Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, which can overlap with EDS.
