NCPAD:Videos: Exercise for People with Multiple Sclerosis

Before starting any exercise program, please consult with your doctor to make sure that it is safe for you to exercise.
Muscular strength, flexibility and conditioning exercises are important components of any well balanced exercise program. These exercises are geared to increase the strength of our muscles, increase joint range of motion and improve cardiovascular functioning. In this first of a four-part series, we will highlight some key exercises, which can enable you to efficiently perform and enjoy our daily tasks and activities.

In this series we feature warm-up and range of motion exercises for people with multiple sclerosis.
