LILIAN HOLM, PT, DPT
​
Doctor of Physical Therapy

 
Lilian Holm, PT, DPT is a doctor of physical therapy, certified micronutrient specialist and health coach. She provides individualized online 
Physical Therapy services, exercise training, consultations and health coaching, all specific to patients with EDS/HSD. She 31 years of experience in many prestigious Chicagoland clinics, the last 15+ years as a private practitioner. 

She has had the honor of facilitating the journey of numerous 
people towards health, well-being and  a higher quality of life. She is passionate about providing comprehensive care to of the highest quality to individuals with hypermobility disorders and other conditions, as she understands EDS/HSD both on a professional and personal level. 

She decided to go into private practice when she realized that the traditional clinical model didn't allow the clinician to put patients' needs first. She is committed to  offering an approach instead that is suited to the many unique needs of individuals with hypermobility disorders.

She views physical therapy as part of a broader approach that incorporates treating both the human body and mind, as well as addressing lifestyle factors that are important, and often necessary, in order to achieve patient goals.

Treatment philosophy

We need to  approach the well-being of the human being using a paradigm that is inclusive of all the factors that synergistically create good health and function. It is my firm belief that the more inclusively we view the various systems of the body, the more successful we can be in understanding and treating patients. It is vital to the success of rehabilitation of hypermobile patients that their unique challenges and needs are taken into account at all times. Patient education is vital and empowers the patient.
