As with all neuro physio, treatment for MS is very much tailored to the individual but can involve some or all of the following:

• exercises to improve muscle strength

• a programme to increase and maintain range of movement

• maximising functional potential and independence

• management of spasms and spasticity

• fatigue management advice

• education to carers and relatives around stretching, positioning and handling techniques

• support to access local leisure facilities and maintain fitness

​
