When you have multiple sclerosis (MS), you may have certain physical and cognitivechallenges. Rehabilitation-including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and cognitive retraining-may help reduce these disabilities.
Key points
- Physical therapy may improve your ability to perform daily activities and make you feel better.
- Occupational therapy may help you perform daily activities more easily-especially those involving your hands and arms, such as grooming, dressing, and eating. Assistive devices may be used to help you perform daily tasks.
- Speech therapy may improve your communication skills if MS symptoms are making speaking difficult.
- Cognitive retraining may help improve cognitive impairment caused by MS.
