Wonderful video. So many different options. I forwarded the video to my mother of 76. I thought this might help her but also be more educated about myself and where I am with my MS routine. Thank you so much. From the bottom of my heart thank you. đ I cannot afford OT& PT right now but at least I can be proactive with myself and my Secondary Progressive diagnosis. Thank you and Bless you abundantly. Tanoa Fort Gibson, OK

Thank you so much for this video! I loved all the definitions. As someone with MS I have often wondered if I have spasticity but now I know it is âjustâ muscle tightness. It was also good to know the difference between active and passive stretching.

Thank You for sharing this video. I have terrible spasticity and Iâm on baclofen and I honestly donât even think that it helps. I am looking forward to trying these stretches and exercises because somethings Gotta give. Iâve been waiting patiently for something finally like this. Iâve had ms since 1997-98. My headaches were terrible that was the only thing I really ever noticed then in 2017 the spasticity the foot drop all started and got continuously worse than 2021 that stupid Covid none of the exercises that Iâve ever used or been told to use are as basic as what Iâm seeing in your video trust me I am looking forward to something positive much thanks đ

Wow! I did all the stretches as you were doing them and I already feel great! I get leg spasms almost every night and it's so hard to get good sleep because of it. Would you recommend doing leg stretches before I go to bed too or some other time during the day?

Thank you so much for sharing I have RRMS and I am doing some PT and the guidance your sharing I verified with my CNCS Dr of PT. I need to figure out the right daily routine and where my own limits are so I don't overwhelmed or overdue. Zapping me for the rest of the day or needing a day to recover. I personally need to figure it out.

Can you get spasticity without a stroke or injury? Or even a neuromuscular disorder?
