Walking progress with Multiple Sclerosis
Amy first came to us last year with the goal of improving her walking after progressive decline in her balance, gait and strength. She made incredible progress across her first visit, reaching the goal of walking without a crutch.

During her second visit, Laura and Amy work on the foundations for stronger and more confident walking, including using the stairs. They work together improving the communication between the brain and body, particularly on the glutes which are important to power and stability (and very often an area of weakness in MS). “I was walking with a crutch, now I’m not. I was using the wrong muscles to walk, now I’m not. I was in pain, now I’m not. I could go on. My neurologist was gobsmacked when he asked me how I was and I said I’m better than I have been in 10 years. He said at this stage, we would be looking to progress me onto having secondary progressive. However, looking at me and doing the standard tests, he said I’m nowhere near that and have almost reversed parts of my MS. If you want real talk, real work and real results, visit APEX NEURO. You will not be disappointed. They have changed my life and I will forever be so thankful.”

Uncontrollable shaking in the muscles has been a persistent symptom for Sam, who developed FND following a serious car accident. Using a device at home, he managed to make incredible progress to walk independently, but needed some deeper investigation to start to understand the patterns and triggers linking with the involuntary muscle responses.

When contracting his quad muscles, Sam’s legs would shake uncontrollably. Rob and Sam work together to start to ‘re-train’ this response, working with Sam’s nervous system until they regain control. A day later, he is able to do the same movement in the gym without the shaking.

Multiple Sclerosis: “I wouldn’t have been able to go back to running without coming here” - changing the narrative for MS! Bec reached out for help with her walking after noticing changes in her gait, foot drop and balance issues. In just a few sessions, Luke helped Bec progress not just in her walking, but to getting back to being able to run. For those who know about MS - this kind of progress is looked on by traditional views as ‘impossible’.

Luke and Bec have also worked with her grip which had felt weaker, and her vision (she had an amazing response to our low level laser therapy). Bec has now taken over her progress using the gym to rebuild her strength and get her one step closer to her Olympic dreams.

Functional Neurological Disorder: learning to use the stairs

Rachel has shared some of her FND journey including walking with a crutch to climbing rocks on the beach unaided with her children 🫶🏼   One of the most common things we work on after building improved walking ability is learning to safely and confidently use the stairs again.

Notice all of this work is without any support from the electrical devices, this is all Rachel. Our goal for FND clients is to progress to no reliance on the machines, but to create changes in the brain, body and through coaching to help them achieve controlled movement, balance and stability without any support.

Multiple Sclerosis walking rehab: intense spasticity following HSCT lead Eddie to reach out to us after seeing the work we do with MS.   Over 5 days, Rob and Eddie cover multiple areas: reducing the intensity of the tightness/spasticity in his muscles that was preventing him from recruiting them, using improved muscle control in walking and sit to stand and working on Eddie’s upper body symptoms (grip, elbow extension and being able to flex his fingers).

You can see a lot of the work on his walking was done without the electric — instead with coaching. This is a key part of our approach, we don’t want clients to rely on the external machine (which initially is providing a stimulus to help improve the brain and body communicate) but to progress to walking and moving without this help.

Gaining control over hand tremors (Functional Neurological Disorder)

One of Hannah’s most persistent FND symptoms is her hands - tremors and finding it hard to control her hands in fine motor tasks. Luke is working with a specific type of electrical current aiming to reduce the shaking and tremors, then using techniques like stretching and contracting the muscles to help Hannah reduce the shaking further.

FND isn’t always a ‘quick fix’ so Hannah will utilise the techniques and some electrical stimulation back home to help her build on the work her and Luke started during her intensive at APEX NEURO.

Multiple Sclerosis: Building Strength

After improving the ability to contract and control the muscles in the clinic, we transition into the gym to teach Rhyiza the machines and techniques to build muscle and strength at home.

Our approach is like a relay race. We do the ‘heavy lifting’ to start the race - getting the brain and body to communicate more effectively. At a certain point, we can pass the baton to the client to build on this work at home (usually via our Remote programme) utilising the gym to build strength. Building strength and muscle takes time and consistency, so our job is to pass on the knowledge for the client to go away and do the work. This is about sustaining progress!

Standing progress with Multiple Sclerosis! Judy previously achieved standing independently for the first time (see her excitement on the first clip!)

Now the foundations are built, Luke and Judy progress to no help from the electricity - this is all Judy’s body! We don’t want our clients to depend on the devices we use.

They act as a tool to achieve a better foundation (improving the communication between the brain and body) but at a certain point we transition to working without help.

Luke and Judy focus on increasing the strength, stability, fluidity and confidence, correcting Judy’s tendency to lean to one side (her MS affects one side of her body more than the other), breaking down old patterns and re-building the power needed to drive herself up as she stands.

In 2 days they cover:

• Voice, facial muscles and swallowing

• Grip and dexterity in both hands

• Core strength and posture

• Power getting up and down

Many years of Multiple Sclerosis progression meant Wojtek primarily relies on a wheelchair and has difficulty standing. Multiple areas in his lower body are affected, leading to difficulty straightening, bending and lifting his legs and lifting his feet/toes.

Wojtek travelled from Poland to the UK having seen our work with Multiple Sclerosis. Rob and Wojtek begin by improving the communication between the brain and the muscles, particularly in lifting the foot and being able to straighten the legs (engaging the muscles) to stand without the legs bending excessively.

This work lead to Wojtek standing, at first with some help leaning on Rob, and by the end of the week to standing unaided. Wojtek will continue to build on this progress at home via our Remote Support Programme.

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) real-world rehabilitation - “I cant remember the last time I walked to the shop”

3 days together and Luke and Caroline were able to progress not just to walking outside (taking on all the external stimulus such as the cold which previously caused Caroline to convulse) but to walk together to the shop which was a monumental achievement in just a few days work. We are doing this all without any devices, just through coaching.

The 2 days before this amazing achievement, Luke and Caroline had worked hard to understand her FND, investigating her physiological patterns and triggers. Luke then worked his magic helping her body and brain to begin to communicate more effectively and change these patterns, at first in the controlled clinic environment, then out into the real world where usual challenges like temperature, noise, dangers such as crossing the road which previously triggered her into being unable to navigate these daily activities.

Caroline has sent us some incredible updates on her progress, progressing back to life as it used to be.

We are hugely proud of the work this team did and what this means for Caroline’s independence and quality of life moving forward!
