In honor of World Multiple Sclerosis Day on 30 May, we are fully standing behind our MS Warriors to "Navigate MS Together"

Multiple Sclerosis is a condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of the nerves (called myelin) in the brain and spinal cord.
This damage makes it harder for messages/signals to travel between the brain and the rest of the body, which can cause different physical, sensory, and thinking problems.
🎗️Common signs and symptoms can vary from person to person, but commonly include:
- Tiredness or extreme fatigue
- Muscle weakness
- Numbness or tingling in the arms, legs, or face
- Difficulty walking or poor balance
- Dizziness
- Muscle stiffness or spasms
- Blurred or double vision
- Pain
- Tremors or shaking
- Problems with coordination
- Difficulty concentrating or memory problems
- Slurred speech
- Bladder or bowel problems
- Mood changes such as depression or anxiety

🎗️Important to Know
- Symptoms may come and go (“flare-ups” or relapses).
- Some people have mild symptoms, while others may have more severe difficulties.
- MS is not contagious.
- Treatment, exercise, physiotherapy, and healthy lifestyle habits can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

We at Cathy Carstens Physiotherapy are here to support you every step of the way.
