What Is Hypermobility?
Hypermobility occurs when joints move beyond their normal range of motion, often due to lax connective tissue or overly flexible ligaments. While some degree of flexibility is common and harmless, hypermobility can lead to joint instability, chronic pain, and an increased risk of injury if left unaddressed. It can affect people of all ages and may make everyday activities uncomfortable or difficult. At Tri Physical Therapy in Phoenix, AZ, we offer personalized treatment programs to help you manage hypermobility and get back to living life on your terms.
How Is Hypermobility Treated?
At Tri Physical Therapy, our licensed physical therapists begin with a comprehensive evaluation to understand how hypermobility is affecting your movement, strength, and daily function. From there, we design a personalized treatment plan that focuses on stabilizing your joints, building muscular support, and improving your overall body awareness. Our goal is to help you move more safely and confidently while reducing pain and the risk of further injury.
What Are The Symptoms Of Hypermobility?
Hypermobility can present differently from person to person, but some of the most common symptoms include:
- Frequent joint pain or aching, especially after physical activity
- Joint instability or a feeling that joints are "giving way"
- Recurring injuries such as sprains, strains, or dislocations
- Muscle fatigue and tension from overworking to compensate for unstable joints
- Poor coordination or difficulty with balance
- Chronic stiffness, particularly in the morning or after periods of inactivity
- Soft tissue injuries that seem to heal slowly or recur frequently
Takeaways
Hypermobility does not have to mean a lifetime of pain or limitation. With the right treatment plan, you can build the strength and stability needed to feel confident in your body and stay active. At Tri Physical Therapy in Phoenix, AZ, our team is dedicated to helping you find lasting relief and improved quality of life.

Tri Physical Therapy Reviews
This facility is clean, well run and well managed. Each time I've been there I've felt welcomed. I particularly felt like Jen helped me so much with medical massage post accident. She really changed how I see my healing and understanding it's a whole body and mind approach .. not sure just the massage. I also see Kate for Dry Needling and she's great, too. She does some cupping on me and is always down to share ways I could improve my movements to have better results and less pain. This place gave me a lot of hope with chronic pain. Only thing I can say is that it's pretty pricey but I that's subjective.
Great people and great service even though I had one session before I got moved to a different state there massage therapist was able to help me with my back problems
I have been seeing Gillian for a little less than a month now and I am already seeing a change in my chronic pain that I have been experiencing the past 2.5 years. She is the best!! I also got my first medical massage with Sara and it truly helped relieve a lot of tension and minimize some pain. Love this place and these women!
I had my knee replaced in August of 2025. Did standard rehab and on paper have had a great recovery. Being a younger, active knee replacement patient, I was looking for a bit more from my knee and leg and I’m so grateful I found Tri Physical Therapy! Gillian has been so great in helping me become more confident with movements and we’re working on fixing imbalances that are making such a difference in my day to day life! Their entire staff is great and so welcoming. Highly recommend to anyone seeking PT services.
I truly can’t put into words how grateful I am to have found Tri Physical Therapy. Chloe is incredibly sweet and makes the entire experience feel effortless and seamless. I’ve worked closely with Gillian and Megan, both of whom are deeply specialized in women’s health, which truly shows in the level of care they provide. For the first time, I felt genuinely heard, like my pain was being thoughtfully understood, not just treated. The level of individualized care and connection they provide is unmatched. And their integration of Pilates into the healing process is something I deeply appreciate, it feels intentional, empowering, and truly effective. So thankful for this team.
