Living with Multiple Sclerosis & the benefits of exercise :
Before Coming to Physability "my condition" was sustained by the system. I was offered very little encouragement to do things for myself, with never any real hope for my future
Since coming to the centre, the focus was very much aimed on what I was able to do and not what I was unable to do. I was given the encouragement to maximise on my abilities rather than dwell on my inabilities. Overall I have been offered real encouragement to be positive about my long term goals and the determination to meet them.

The benefits of exercise whether lying down, seated, standing and our stretching programmes are very beneficial for conditions such as multiple sclerosis often leaving the client with a "feel good" factor. There are also frequent reports from clients affected by M.S. that they feel a 'normal exercise fatigue' which is totally different to the 'normal M.S. fatigue'. The feel good factor appears to last for several days post exercise.
