Join my Research Study
Evaluating the effectiveness of the Jing Method of Clinical Massage on the wellbeing of adults diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome or Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder
In 2024, I embarked on an advanced degree level qualification in my field: the BTEC Level 6 in Advanced Clinical and Sports Massage offered by the Jing Institute of Advanced Massage.
This degree level qualification is the highest level of education a massage therapist can achieve in the UK. Jing has been running for 22 years and is taught and overseen by experts in the field of musculoskeletal pain, education, sports science and psychology.
My final piece of work is an opportunity to design and carry out a study into the effects of a clinical massage wellness programme.
I am excited to bring together my personal experience of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome with my clinical practice in which I treat people living with symptomatic hypermobility. I will use this study to evaluate how Clinical Massage can affect the wellbeing of adults living with EDS/HSD.
My hope is that this research will help not only those taking part, but also help the manual therapy world understand the role massage can play and therefore help more people in the management of these conditions.
