Rehab rules (and rocks)!

We are Covid cautious 👆🏼

1. Do not come if you are ill. Any temperature above 37 degrees and you will not get out of the car. ☹️
2. Please come with a mask 😷
3. Drivers, carers, extras must stay outside unless needed. 😎
4. Sessions will start at 5 minutes past the hour and finish at 5 minutes to the hour to give me time to wipe down between clients. ⏰. There has been no change in your original scheduled times.

SEE YOU SOON 🥳

Meet Oliver Sinclair
Living with Multiple Sclerosis - since 2004 - Oli says
“I went for an MRI scan because the right hand side of my face was numb and these 3 things were at the top of my Doctors report.2 weeks later I had another attack and this time I lost my speech, developed double-vision and lost the function of my body from my waist down. After numerous tests, MRI scans and a lumbar puncture I was diagnosed with MS.
Over time my speech returned and the feeling came back to my legs but to this day I still have double vision (when I go to see my Optometrist he says my eyes do things he has never seen before).
For the next 6 years things were pretty stable. I would have small attacks and recover from them. The worst was the side effects from the medication. 3 injections per week and each one would leave me shivering with fever and the following day would be a write-off due to a general weakness and headaches (that is almost 50% of your life now gone).
After 6 years my MS progressed into the next phase and now I don’t recover completely from my attacks. The right hand side of my body doesn’t work: my foot hangs, my hand is clenched, my toes are clenched, the right side of my face droops. All of a sudden things that you did without thinking about have become difficult or impossible: writing, tying shoe laces, running, carrying my son, dressing him or myself, holding a knife and fork, walking on a beach, walking in general.
I am 45 years old, I walk with a walking stick, I have a WalkAide on my right leg and I use an electric wheelchair. I go to Mary Rudd Physiotherapy for Transeva and RT300 Leg Training. The other days I train by myself and do stretches. I eat a strict diet and take numerous vitamins and supplements.
I have found that this training regime has helped my life Living with MS.”
