At Home Massage Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis

Despite there being no cure for MS, there are treatment options. At Body Well Therapy, we have seen patients suffering from MS respond tremendously due to expert massage therapy.

The Benefits of Massage Therapy for MS

Multiple sclerosis or MS is a condition that can impact both the spinal cord and the brain. This causes a range of different symptoms from difficulty with mobility to problems with balance or even issues with vision.

If you or a loved one suffers from MS, you will already know how it can impact your quality of life. There is no cure for MS and the symptoms will impact you for the rest of your life. For this reason, it can be incredibly difficult to manage and handle.

Most people will be diagnosed in their late twenties or thirties. However, the condition can actually begin to show symptoms at any point in life.

MS is an autoimmune disease and is caused by the immune system attacking healthy parts of the body such as the brain and the spinal cord. Unfortunately, no one is completely sure why the immune system starts to act this way.

MS will always take a toll on your life. It can cause more than just physical issues and trigger feelings of stress or even depression. Depression can make physical symptoms far worse and lead to higher levels of pain or discomfort.

Many experts agree that massage therapy can help here. With massage therapy it’s possible and indeed likely that a patient will experience deeper levels of sleep. Deeper levels of sleep will always mean lower levels of pain for patients suffering from MS.

As well as helping those suffering MS gain deeper levels of sleep, massage therapy can also be used as natural pain management. It’s quite common for people with the condition to suffer from higher levels of pain. This is due to the disease attacking and impacting the sensory nerves.

With massage therapy, issues such as chronic pain can be treated safely and effectively. Massage therapy triggers increased production of serotonin through the body. This is one of the body’s natural pain killers, ensuring that any discomfort felt by the patient is greatly reduced.

The impact of massage therapy on the level of pain experienced by someone suffering from MS can be tremendous. One study from 2009 revealed that after just ten weeks, patients reported that their levels of pain had decreased by fifty percent.

As well as this, massage therapy will work to boost levels of circulation in the body and this can help patients with MS relax. That in turn will help reduce their feelings of discomfort and anxiety or even stress.

Furthermore, massage therapy can provide tremendous physical benefits for MS sufferers as well. After massage therapy it’s common for the mobility of patients to improve. This is due to a higher level of flexibility and a decrease in levels of muscle stiffness which is one of the common symptoms of the condition.
