"I know I'm flexible, but I feel tight all the time."

At first glance, that sounds contradictory.
If a muscle is tight, surely it just needs stretching?
Not necessarily.
Muscles don't just create movement—they also help create stability.

For people with hypermobility, joints often move through larger ranges than average. To manage this, the muscles surrounding those joints may have to work harder to provide control and stability during everyday activities.

This doesn't mean stretching is "bad."
Many people find stretching feels good and can provide short-term symptom relief.
The key point is that feeling tight doesn't automatically mean a lack of flexibility is the problem.

Instead of asking:
"How can I get more flexible?"
it may be more useful to ask:
"How well can I control the range I already have?"

Do you consider yourself hypermobile? Have you experienced this feeling of being both flexible and stiff at the same time?

Cervical myelopathy isn’t “just neck pain.”
In mild cases, physiotherapy can help maintain strength, balance, and function — but only while symptoms remain stable.

Subtle changes like increasing hand clumsiness, reduced walking tolerance, or near-falls may signal spinal cord progression. That’s why conservative management requires active monitoring, not passive treatment.
