Outpatient Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis

Physical therapy is a vital and effective supplement to medical care for those who have multiple sclerosis (MS). Physical therapists address many of the physical symptoms of MS and teach patients how to best manage their condition. Working preventatively, physical therapists create and implement individualized exercise prescriptions to promote optimal physical health.

Specialized MS rehabilitation can address:

• balance issues
• fatigue
• functional decline
• hemiplegia/ataxia
• uncoordination
• mobility issues
• muscular imbalance and tone
• pain (chronic and acute)
• range of motion limitations
• spasticity
• walking difficulty
• weakness
