A lot of the press study touts “Exercise therapy is one of the most promising treatment strategies in MS rehabilitation.” Since being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1985, it is good to see this turn-around on the topic of exercise and MS. We have come a long way from being told by neurologists to take it easy…as not to aggravate the condition. Not that we really need a study to get this, but this shows that exercise in MS is both NEUROPROTECTIVE and has DISEASE-MODIFYIN

One of our biggest obstacles in, first, believing we can live a full and complete live with Multiple Sclerosis and, second, actually doing it, is that silent self-critic that makes anything less than perfect a problem. Perfectly imperfect. A diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis automatically makes us feel less than perfect and it’s never something we factor into our lives – ever, so it becomes a problem. But really the notion that somehow we are all going to be perfect all of our

Through the current avalanche of research we know how gluten damages the microbiome (gut) to activate the immune system. Because of this, the importance of avoiding this food protein in anyone with multiple sclerosis (or any autoimmune condition) has become very real. While obvious foods like a loaf of bread are easy to identify, the unfortunate thing is that gluten has become a cheap hidden additive to many foods. It can be lurking where you least expect it. The best way to

Louise carried the same powerful healing message, unwaveringly, from the 60’s until she passed away in her 90’s in 2017. Now her methodology is proven in science. Your thoughts, patterns and behaviours, drive your tissue behaviour, change your physiology and either create or repair disease. This is powerful stuff and every minute of every day it serves us to integrate it. In this post Lousie talks about ‘aging’ and every word of it holds true for any healthcare concern you ma

For decades I have found people who work shifts respond very differently to my treatment plans – in fact, I have consistently found them the most difficult to treat. I did not, however, know that the disrupted circadian rhythms put shift workers at greater risk of multiple sclerosis. In a way, it was no surprise to read an article in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine called “Rotating night shift work and risk of multiple sclerosis.” The results of this la
