I started the MAT journey in 2021 when I started working at PRISM Spine & Joint. PRISM works with patients with connective tissue disorders, including hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. Working with this patient population requires a lot of attention to detail. Although our patients are hypermobile, often times their end ranges of motion are much smaller than they appear or one would expect. Exceeding end range of motion for them could cause increased instability at a joint. I’ve also gotten to incorporate PICs with our patients to reduce the “give it my all” mentality during muscle tests. It has been amazing to see the impact MAT has with our patients, including improving overall stability, proprioception, strength, and reducing the frequency of joint subluxations!
