I have struggled to find ways to exercise that don’t cause me pain afterwards because of my hEDS. Even yoga causes pain! What are some suggestions to still be active?

Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS)

    Maybe simple stretching being sure to not overextend? I personally do Pilates for my hEDS to strength my muscles to stabilise my joints.

    i've heard swimming is really good for EDS! the dr i see for pain management is an EDS specialist & has it herself; she told me that low impact is the way to go. Swimming is one of the lowest impact exercises there is so if you have access to a pool/body of water that's safe to swim in & you're able i'd give it a try :)
