77. Hyper-mobility Spectrum’s role in complex illness with Alexandra Bucko

Today on the podcast, I’m joined by Alexandra Bucko, a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Mineral Nutritional Balancing Practitioner who works primarily with complex and chronic illness cases.

Alex specializes in hypermobility and hypermobility-related connective tissue disorders, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, POTS, autonomic dysfunction, and extreme hypersensitivities—and she brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to this work, having navigated many of these conditions herself.

In this conversation, I had so many questions around the differences between connective tissue disorders, how to know if you might have one, what symptoms to look for, and how diagnosis actually works. We also talk about whether some of these patterns can improve or even reverse with the right support, and why so many people experience overlap between genetic factors, autonomic dysfunction, and sensitivity-driven symptoms.

We go beyond labels and dive into practical, grounded strategies to support the body physically, structurally, and emotionally, especially for those who feel like their system is fragile, reactive, or hard to stabilize.

Alex is also pursuing her medical doctorate and a Master’s of Science in Human Nutrition, with completion expected in 2028 and 2027. She currently lives in Split, Croatia, and when she’s not working with clients or studying, you’ll find her at the beach, traveling, or enjoying good food.

This episode is especially valuable if you’ve been trying to make sense of complex symptoms, overlapping diagnoses, or feel like your body doesn’t respond to conventional approaches.
