But actually my arms and legs been feeling weak as ever lately...which is why I'm trying my best to keep up with my exercise therapy...it's just good for my MS and the health of my body overall..., studies show that the benefits of exercise far outweigh the challenges for people with MS — as long as you remember not to overdo it and that moderation is essential. Which is why I go into John's Hopkins Hospital and work with someone that specializes in MS patients...If you have MS, check with your doctor before starting a routine. For someone with MS, exercise that's too aggressive can bring on severe fatigue and injury and exacerbate symptoms. Though regular aerobic exercise can increase strength and balance, improve bowel and bladder control, and decrease spasticity related to MS, it can backfire if you don't take a gentler approach. You may experience numbness, tingling or blurred vision when you start to exercise. This is due to a rise in core body temperature resulting from exertion. Typically, symptoms will ease as your body cools down. You can manage your body temperature while you exercise with a cooling collar or other device the National MS Society says & A physical therapist or fitness instructor familiar with MS can help create a routine that fits your capabilities and addresses issues such as body temperature, poor balance, fatigue and spasticity. He or she can also assist in monitoring your pulse and breathing rate to help you pace yourself and avoid overexertion. Pool exercise is my favorite, such as water aerobics and it also may help with balance and, therefore, reduce your risk of falls. Anyone with MS can modify an exercise routine to meet his or her needs. Just remember to work within your range of ability and not to overdo it 😘 hope everyone has a productive day 🙋🏽♀️ #BmoreMSAware #NaturalElementsByL #mssociety #mswarrior #fums #WEAREILLMATIC #support #msactivist #DMV #baltimore #bmorepride #bloggermom #blog #cleanseas #saynotoplastic #natural #naturelovers #homedecor https://www.instagram.com/p/BtgerPKlu-p/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cpeuwpeb9ft5
