Targeted towards a specific subset of bendy bondies, but great info for ALL bendies.
Episode 35 with Dr Maitland deserves 10 stars. If you want to learn about mast cell disorders, listen to that episode. Another doctor on a different podcast stated that Mast Cell Activation Syndrome is so prevalent in hypermobile people that he is more surprised when he meets a hypermobile patient that DOESN’T have MCAS than when he meets those that do. It is tragic how few doctors can recognize mast cell disorders, so for this information alone, this podcast is a treasure. It helps us bendies be better educated and therefore be “better” consumers of the healthcare system. Sometimes that means having to look hard for the right doctors, or maybe it means educating our own current doctors when they are willing to learn. The podcast, especially given that it is led by a doctor and then often interviews doctors - is a solid part of the education we need. Recommend!
Helped me SO very much
I started listening to Bendy Body’s when they first launched. I’ve been hooked ever since. It is a place to come to learn through others experiences as well as forward thinking research. A gem for the eds community.
Grateful for the Education
Thank you to everyone who works on this podcast. This podcast has help me get educated on something that I’ve needed more understanding on. This podcast helps me to understand myself more, and how to take care of myself better. Typically people with chronic pain spend a lot of money on their healthcare, so I’m full of gratitude to say thank you for offering such a valuable resource to the people in need for free.

Informative and eye opening
As a newly graduated DPT especially interested in performing arts PT, this is my #1 podcast. I binged the whole show In 1 week and now look forward to every new episode. I have learned so much that isn’t taught in school and get to connect with the amazing guests they have on this show. Linda & Jennifer! Just know that you are inspiring my future career. I hope one day to connect with you all in a professional capacity! THANK you for providing this information 🖤
Thank you for Creating this podcast!!!
I can’t thank you enough for starting this podcast, hypermobility is an area that is so under discussed and under researched in the medical community! Having been diagnosed with hypermobility and all the injuries that come along with it, it’s been extremely hard to find professionals to work with that understand how they can help and strengthen instead of pushing stretching on an already limber body. Thank you thank you creating this, can’t wait to listen to all of the episodes!!
Bendy Bodies: Capturing Authenticity (with Rachel Neville)
Preach! This whole episode is groundbreaking and full of long overdue information. The last segment on the importance of core training is priceless.
Helpful
This is an interesting and helpful podcast. I feel supported by both the knowledge and the attitudes of the host and guests. Thank you so much!
Very Informative Podcast
This Podcast is so incredibly informative and helpful. I appreciate your willingness to share the knowledge you and your guests have gained over many years.
Bendy minds, not just bodies!!!
An amazingly informative solution focused podcast. If you are hypermobile, you NEED this. If you have health issues generally, I think this would be illuminating for most. If you have chronic pain, dive on in. The resources mentioned alone will be a huge help for your journey!! These amazing women take a holistic approach, and take all different perspectives in considering issues...they have great bendy minds!!
Phenomenal podcast with great evidence-based information!
