Did you know that underneath all the root causes we support as functional health professionals, there's something that connects them all… and that something is disrupted in 20% of the population? In this episode of the Clinician's Corner, we do a deep dive with Dr. Aaron Hartman on the topic of hypermobility, a key and unsung contributing factor to many of the health issues we see in practice - from gut health, to autoimmune disease, to ADHD. It's a connective tissue disorder that quite literally connects these and many other issues - and one that is almost always overlooked by health professionals.

In this interview, we dive deep into the important and wildly underdiscussed topic of hypermobility with one of the world's experts: What is hypermobility? What's the spectrum of disorder? How does hypermobility affect other things we think of as the "root causes" of chronic disease? How do we identify if a client is dealing with hypermobility? Most importantly, what do we do about it?

Dr. Aaron Hartman is a clinical researcher, founder of the Virginia Research Center, and currently is serving as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Family Medicine at the VCU School of Medicine. He has been involved with over 60 clinical studies. In 2016 he founded Richmond Integrative and Functional Medicine, and he now helps patients identify leverage points in key areas of their lifestyle & health that harness their body's remarkable power to heal and begin living the vibrant life they deserve. He has become the 'go to' doctor for difficult and hard cases in central Virginia.
