An Online Pilates Program for People with Hypermobility: A Pragmatic Clinical Trial Looking at Function, Interoception, Kinesiophobia, and Physical Activity Levels
This online Pilates program for people with symptomatic hypermobility improved BIoH, BARQ, and TSK, though changes were modest. The exercises did not improve IPAQ. Online exercise may provide a cost-effective way to encourage life-long activity in people with hypermobility. Limitations include the inability to monitor performance of the Pilates, high drop-out rates, and the inability to control for changes in other treatments patients may have received.
