I’ve been finding some stretching exercise videos for MS online, just curious if anyone has any recommendations for ones they found helpful. my muscles are chronically tight, so stretching is vital but I find unless they’re specific to MS many end up causing more pain. I’ve even found many PTs don’t truly understand MS
I Like the Above MS site with MS exercises & brain games, food ,etc. I'll have to look at MS Gym - thanks!
Keep doing your exercises and flexibility movements. Making your muscles move and your nerves sending messages is a good thing. Because we display our symptoms and the side effects differently, PT professionals sometimes don’t have enough experience with MSers. Hard to stay patient and understanding. Don’t give up. You know YOU.
Do yourself the biggest favour of your life and buy these.
A Homedics back stretching yoga mat and a Theragun mini.
Worth also getting the thumb, wedge and cone attachments for the Theragun.
Worth every penny.
Yoga with Adriene on YouTube is pretty good. It is not for MS but I find that many of her exercises mimic what my PT has me doing. She has all levels and she has options by length of workout. You get as deep on not as you want. Best part, it is free.
The MS gym (themsgym.com) has good exercise programs for people with MS. The programs contain stretching but I haven't found programs solely for MS stretch's. I have made noticeable positive changes from my work in the gym. The gym isn't video tapes but it is brought to you by a computerized platform and you can access with any/all devices you have like pc, phone or tablet. It's great for me as I can exercise/ stretch at any time of the day/night. I really favor the MS gym and I hope you find the right thing for you
