I just saw the video of the beautiful splint company. I know you don't know me, but I have EDS too -or at least it is suspected I do my GP doesn't believe my physical therapist and I get little help-
I was really inspired by the video and I'm really glad things worked out so well with your ring splints! I know with knee or wrist supports they can be easy to get, and you can do some exercises to get stronger in the joints, I get help from my therapist and those joints are stronger now, but with fingers they are so hard to support correctly and they're so small and fragile how do you build lots of muscle there?! So I too struggle sometimes as an artist. I can't write in my school and I get special support because of the condition, but it gets so hard sometimes. Hopefully splints will be more widely available someday and there will be more good stories like you had in the video.
Sorry this is so long >o<
Keep up the good work and stay strong

No worries us EDSers have to stick together! There may be a nz silver splint maker, or you could try one of the order online ones, the name of the main one escapes me but I'll try to recall and link it for you x

This website has a dizzying amount of supports, although I cannot tell you which of them are good and not good since there are so many!
Keep strong and stay creative, your work is very impressive

Which worked for your shoulder?
A lot of musicians have eds, and dancers too my professor doc studies the links between them. Aot of eds guitar players have found splints hugely useful.
Do you instagram? I'm ursulaapplebaby x

My physiotherapist use to tape my shoulder in place because when she looked at it she told me it had collapsed inside and she pulled it out and taped it in place, I usually make it strong and dont need to brace anymore 
I am a musician, I play bass guitar, my favourite bassist is also double jointed so I like to play more bass to be like him, I find it helps my playing! Although my dancing is awful so I'll leave that to other eds-ers!!!
Splints would be very helpful yes!
I don't instagram sorry. I have tumblr though LoveTheVisualSystem

I'm coming up on 31. I have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. people with my condition have defective colligen this makes our skin wrinkle free and pale and seethrough, plus we tend to have big eyes like a younger person, means I still get id-ed when I go out to the pub! Thanks for the interest in my work and.. er.. my age?! x
