279. MS Balance Tips for Real Life

from The MSing Link · host Dr. Gretchen Hawley PT, DPT, MSCS

In this episode, I’m tackling a topic that frustrates so many of us living with multiple sclerosis (MS): balance training! As an MS-specialized physical therapist and founder of the MSing Link, I break down why traditional balance exercises like tandem stance, feet together, and wobble boards often don’t help with real-life activities—like getting dressed, walking on uneven surfaces, or turning your head.  Instead, I share evidence-based, functional balance exercises that are proven to improve mobility, strength, and confidence in day-to-day life. If you want to discover practical strategies, MS exercises, and personalized tools to tackle balance challenges, this episode is for you!    Resources Mentioned In This Episode:  The MSing Link Online Program: https://www.doctorgretchenhawley.com/TheMSingLink   Additional Resources: https://www.doctorgretchenhawley.com/insider Reach out to Me: [email protected]  Website: www.MSingLink.com Social:  ★ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mswellness ★ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/doctor.gretchen ★ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/doctorgretchenhawley?sub_confirmation=1 → Game Changers Course: https://www.doctorgretchenhawley.com/GameChangersCourse → Total Core Program: https://www.doctorgretchenhawley.com/TotalCoreProgram → The MSing Link: https://www.doctorgretchenhawley.com/TheMSingLink
