Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The management of patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is still underdeveloped in healthcare institutions in France. Although multidisciplinary management through exercise rehabilitation has demonstrated its benefits in many chronic pathologies, it has not been evaluated for EDS. As a result, to date there is no evidence of its effectiveness in patients with EDS. The objective of this study is therefore to objectively evaluate the effectiveness of such a treatment on the different dimensions of these patients' health.
