If you’ve ever felt like your body is falling apart and no one’s listening — this episode is for you. Jade sits down with clinical naturopath Kris Jasper, founder of Hypermobile Natural Therapies, to unpack the hidden world of hypermobility (hEDS and HSD), chronic pain, POTS, MCAS, and why so many people spend years being misdiagnosed or dismissed.
Kris shares her personal and clinical journey through hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) — and how naturopathic care can transform life with these complex conditions.
Key highlights:
Understanding the trifecta: hEDS, POTS, and MCAS
Why these conditions are often misdiagnosed, and how to spot the signs earlier
The strong connection between hypermobility and neurodivergence
What post-viral onset (like long COVID) can reveal about hEDS
Foundational naturopathic tools for symptom management: nutrients, nervous system regulation, and body safety
Personal stories of medical gaslighting, trauma, and reclaiming health
How to work with — not against — a sensitive, complex body
Tune in for a deeply validating and informative conversation that blends lived experience, clinical insight, and practical naturopathic strategies — perfect for anyone navigating complex chronic illness or supporting those who do.
