People with multiple sclerosis (MS) often experience lower bone density and earlier onset of Osteoporosis, increasing the risk of falls and/or fractures. The STRONG-MS study is evaluating a High-Intensity Resistance and Impact Training (HiRIT) program, to see whether it can improve bone health, muscle strength, mobility, and quality of life in people with MS. Over the course of 12-months, free exercise sessions will be attended twice-weekly, each lasting 30-minutes.

Here at Transitions Physiotherapy we are vestibular and neurological trained so we can comprehensively assess your balance and let you know specifically what you can do to improve your balance.

It’s Balance Awareness Week ⚖️🧘‍♀️

Balance isn’t a physical skill mastered by gymnasts, athletes, or yoga lovers – it’s a complex neurological process your brain is managing every second. 🧠

Your nervous system is constantly interpreting signals from three key systems to keep you on your feet:
👀 Visual system – your eyes help you understand your position in space
💪 Proprioceptive system – your muscles & joints tell your brain about body position and movement
👂 Vestibular system – your inner ear detects head movement & orientation

If any of these systems are disrupted, dizziness and other vestibular symptoms can occur.

For example, migraine (vestibular migraine), Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson’s disease, Meniere's disease, and brain injuries can all impact balance.

Treatments are varied and will depend on your underlying diagnosis and symptoms.

How does balance affect you in your everyday life? 💫
