When you think of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), you probably think of hypermobility and our PT colleagues.

But did you know this rare diagnosis is actually closely linked to functional voice and swallowing disorders? 👀

In this week’s newest resource, Ashley Michaelis, M.S., CCC-SLP will give you an overview of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and what SLPs should know – including subtypes, common symptoms, prevalence, and diagnostic criteria.

After all, you’ll need to grasp the basics of EDS before you can focus on dysphonia or dysphagia treatment in this population. (Don’t worry, resources on these topics are coming soon, too!)

Ready to broaden your knowledge and better serve patients with EDS?
