My most requested video has been a Q&A all about my mobility aids which I use to help me with my Chronic pain & Fatigue caused by EDS (Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) and POTS (POstural orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) My wonderful followers over on Instagram gave me some amazing questions and I've tried to cover them all in this video. They cover everything from when should I start using one and what aid should I start with to my journey with using a mobility aid. Plus how to have confidence using mobility aids and how I deal with judgement. And so much more! I hope you find it helpful please drop me a comment if you have further questions or want me to clarify anything! Also use the chapters below to find the answers most helpful for you. Spoons & Love!
