BROWN UNIVERSITY - PROVIDENCE, RI - JUNE 16, 2018

Dr. Patricia Meegan gives the physical therapists' point-of-view regarding the treatment of connective tissue disorders (like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome), particularly those that cause neurologic symptoms and chronic pain. Dr. Meegan describes some of the techniques that PTs use to make these symptoms better and to hopefully treat pain and other issues the patient may be struggling with using non-pharmacological techniques.
