In this episode of The MSing Link Podcast, I share 7 essential physical therapy modifications to enhance your exercise routine if you have multiple sclerosis. We discuss practical strategies including changing exercise positions, adjusting repetitions, incorporating longer rest breaks, and decreasing resistance or weight. These modifications are designed to make exercises more doable, increase neuroplasticity, and improve daily functions like walking and climbing stairs.


Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been living with MS for years, tuning into this episode will equip you with effective and actionable tips for better exercise results.
