Multiple Sclerosis
Maximizing Function with Multiple Sclerosis
Move better. Feel stronger. Live with less pain.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological condition that affects communication between the brain and body. Symptoms can vary widely and may change over time, impacting movement, sensation, and daily function. Effective multiple sclerosis treatment focuses on symptom management, slowing progression, and maintaining independence through specialized care.
At CHLMD, we provide advanced Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) for multiple sclerosis in North Palm Beach, offering non-surgical solutions designed to improve function and quality of life.
Understanding the condition
What is multiple sclerosis?
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune neurological disorder that targets the central nervous system, damaging the protective covering of nerve fibers (myelin). This disruption interferes with nerve signaling between the brain and body, leading to a wide range of neurological symptoms.
The course of MS can vary, with some patients experiencing relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and others facing progressive multiple sclerosis, requiring ongoing, personalized multiple sclerosis care and rehabilitation.
Common Symptoms
How Multiple Sclerosis Can Affect Daily Life
Loss of Movement
Partial or complete loss of movement affecting mobility and coordination.
Changes in Sensation
Numbness, tingling, or reduced feeling in affected areas.
Muscle Spasticity
Muscle stiffness or involuntary spasms that limit movement.
Chronic Pain
Persistent pain that can interfere with comfort and daily activities.
Personalized. Non- surgical. Results-focused.
We focus on preserving function, reducing symptoms, and improving quality of life through individualized multiple sclerosis rehabilitation plans. Because MS affects each patient differently, our approach emphasizes adaptive neurological rehabilitation, ongoing assessment, and targeted therapies that evolve with your condition.
Treatment may include:
- Comprehensive multiple sclerosis physical therapy
- Strength, balance, and mobility training
- Fatigue management strategies
- Spasticity and pain management
- Therapeutic exercise programs
- EMG diagnostics
- Assistive and adaptive devices
- Daily living functional training
