Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (Latin sclerosis multiplex, MS) is a chronic demyelinating disease that requires comprehensive and continuous physiotherapy. Its most common symptoms are spasticity, balance disorders, ataxia, tremors, limited range of joint movements, decreased muscle strength, neurogenic bladder dysfunction, dysphagia, and speech disorders. The aim of this study is to describe the most commonly used methods of physiotherapy that are used in multiple sclerosis, based on the available literature.
Highlights
