Did you know that massage can help reduce the symptoms of MS?
- Fatigue/insomnia
- Dizziness, pain, pins and needles in limbs
- Anxiety and depression.
And the symptoms can vary from patient to patient and from day to day.
What not to do in a massage:
- Deep tissue massage
- Too much stretching
- Twisting techniques
- Too much heat in the room
- Do not treat within 72 hours of the last steroid injection or intravenous treatment.
In the US, in a survey with over 3000 respondants who had MS, nearly 25% sought massage to help with their symptoms. So if you know anyone who has MS, massage is well worth considering.
