Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic condition that affects the brain and spinal cord, disrupting the signals between the body and mind. Because MS can be unpredictable — with symptoms that vary widely between people — receiving the right support at the right time makes a world of difference.
At ONE Rehabilitation Service in Ashford, Adelaide, we focus on neurological rehabilitation. Our allied health team provides personalised, evidence-based care to help people living with MS stay independent, active, and connected to the things that matter most.
Understanding MS Symptoms
No two journeys with MS are the same. Common symptoms can include:
- Fatigue and reduced energy
- Muscle weakness and spasticity
- Changes in balance and coordination
- Numbness or tingling in the limbs
- Vision difficulties
- Bladder or bowel changes
- Speech and swallowing challenges
- Cognitive changes, such as memory or concentration difficulties
- Emotional health concerns, including anxiety and depression
These symptoms can fluctuate over time, which is why a flexible, individualised approach to treatment is so important.
How Allied Health Services Can Support MS
At ONE Rehab, our team works together to provide integrated support across all aspects of MS care:
- Physiotherapy: Improve strength, mobility, balance, and manage spasticity to reduce falls.
- Exercise Physiology: Safe, tailored exercise programs to build fitness, reduce fatigue, and maintain muscle strength.
- Occupational Therapy: Support daily living, energy management, upper limb function, assistive technology, and home modifications.
- Speech Pathology: Help with swallowing and speech difficulties.
- Psychology: Manage mood changes, anxiety, depression, and adjustment to life with MS.
- Social Work: Assistance with services, NDIS navigation, counselling, and community connections.
The Role of Assistive Technology
Assistive technology can make daily life safer and more independent. Our occupational therapists and physiotherapists can prescribe:
- Mobility aids (walkers, wheelchairs)
- Fatigue management tools
- Adaptive kitchen and home equipment
- Home modifications for safety and access
- Upper Limb Therapy & NeuroBOOST™
For many people with MS, arm and hand function is a priority. High-intensity, repetitive movement training helps improve strength, coordination, and motor control. At ONE Rehab, we offer both conventional therapy and our NeuroBOOST™ program, designed to harness neuroplasticity and improve function.
