What is the link between hypermobility, ACL injuries and doughnuts? Is there a way to tailor rehab specifically for these patients?
Hypermobile patients were 14% more likely to get a second ACL injury.
Put another way, this is 1 out of every 7 hypermobile ACL patients.
They are also 5 and a half times more likely to get a second ACL injury within 12 months of their first one.
We went on a Research Quest to discover a 6-step system for protecting hypermobile patients from ACL injury.
Let’s dive in.

Generalised joint hypermobility leads to increased odds of sustaining a second ACL injury within 12 months of return to sport after ACL reconstruction.
