More than 2.3 million people are affected by multiple sclerosis (MS) worldwide. Because the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) does not require U.S. physicians to report new cases, and because symptoms can be completely invisible, the prevalence of MS in the U.S. can only be estimated. Therefore, some of your clients may suffer from MS and you may be an important source for relief.
Fitness professionals can effectively work with those who have MS providing them with a better quality of life through movement.
In this webinar, you’ll gain introductory knowledge for working with clients with MS:
- Fundamental information on the anatomy and physiology affected by MS, causes of MS, signs and symptoms of MS, and traditional treatment for MS.
- Techniques on management of MS through exercise.
- How to design and prescribe a proper exercise program including basic nutrition to improve the quality of life for your clients with MS.
With progression tracking, your clients can experience a gradual and pleasant growth in their health and fitness status. You as their health and fitness coach can provide a positive experience to facilitate an effective path to better health and wellness.
