Myofascial Trigger Points: A Source of Pain & Dysfunction in Patients with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome & Treatments for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) Fibromyalgia, Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD)

The management of chronic pain in patients diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) is complex and requires a multimodal approach (Chopra, 2015). Common types of pain reported include joint, neuropathic, headaches/orofacial, pelvic and gastrointestinal (Chopra et al., 2017). Often times, these symptoms are heightened and perpetuated by the presence of myofascial trigger points. It has been proposed that the characteristic taut bands within trigger points are created to counteract joint instability (Levy et al., 2004). Due to the widespread hypermobility, present in patients with EDS, it is warranted to assess myofascial dysfunction as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. Particularly, when evaluating patients with the impairments mentioned below or a secondary diagnosis. Sunstone Laser Pain Clinic in Tamworth offer treatments for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) Fibromyalgia, Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) treatments include: laser pain relief therapy, shockwave therapy and massage for myofascial trigger points.

Of all the alternative therapies available, more and more research is showing that massage therapy provides real benefits to people dealing with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder. A study in 2011 showed that massage therapy caused reductions in sensitivity to pain at tender points in patients with these conditions, as well as lowering anxiety levels and increasing quality of sleep. According to this same study, massage therapy is particularly effective when it is administered to soft and connective tissues because this improves muscle flexibility, as well as modulating local blood and lymph circulation.
