In this session, we’ll explore with Dr Gretchen Hawley the powerful concepts of neuroplasticity and remyelination – two key factors in managing and slowing the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS).
Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to rewire and create new pathways, allowing it to adapt and compensate for damage caused by MS. Dr Hawley explains how specific exercises tailored for MS can encourage this rewiring, helping you regain strength, balance, and mobility in areas affected by demyelination.
She will also provide a clear understanding of how remyelination works, why it’s vital for slowing MS progression, and how lifestyle choices and therapies can support this process.
