Begin Your Journey with Muldowney PT

Start Your Journey Toward Less Pain and Better Function

If you are living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) or joint hypermobility, you already know how frustrating it can be to find the right care.

At Muldowney Physical Therapy, we specialize in helping people like you.

Our approach is different.

We don’t just treat symptoms; we evaluate your entire body, identify the root causes, and give you a clear plan forward.

Choose the Right Path for You

We offer two ways to begin, depending on your schedule, location, and goals.

Best for:

  • Patients who can attend 2–3 times per week
  • Patients using Medicare or Blue Cross Blue Shield


How It Works:

  • You’ll start with a 1-hour evaluation with one of our trained physical therapists
  • Treatment continues 2–3x per week
  • All therapists are trained in Kevin Muldowney’s EDS protocol


Important:

Insurance does NOT cover EDS or hypermobility directly.

You will need a referral for low back pain, which is where we begin your evaluation.

What You Need to Do:

  1. Get a referral from your doctor for low back pain
  2. Call to schedule your evaluation
