Episode 376: Adding Dance, Music, and Art Therapy to Your MS Treatment Plan with Dr. Francois Bethoux

On this podcast, we tend to talk a lot about new technologies, emerging treatments, the most recently approved disease-modifying therapies, and even some DMTs that haven't yet been approved.   And in the midst of all that cutting-edge research and evolving science, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that expressive therapies like dance and movement therapy, music therapy, and art therapy have all been shown to help promote self-efficacy, emotional well-being, and motor control in people living with MS. Dr. Francois Bethoux joins me on today's episode to discuss the benefits of integrating dance and movement therapy, music therapy, and art therapy into your treatment plan to help manage your MS symptoms and enhance your well-being. November is National Family Caregivers Month, and we're sharing a neat piece of tech that can not only make life easier for MS caregivers but can make life better for their care recipients, as well.
