Show Notes:
Mary Thorton is a British physiotherapist and founder of The Clinical Pilates Studio in England. You can learn more about her and her studio here: *https://clinicalpilatesstudio.squarespace.com/our-team*
The article I mentioned came out in 2017, so it was a big deal when I heard about it in 2018. It's still very new. You can check it out here: *https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ajmg.c.31552*
The Beighton Test is super not useful to measure hypermobility because those 9 points I talk about don't get into the hypermobility that could happen in one's heart, intestines, bladder, blood vessels, eyes, etc. It's a very limited and outdated test that doesn't cover much of the spectrum of Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder.
