Conditions

  • Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis

Interventions

OTHER

Physical exercise

Strength training exercises are performed against own body weight or with training aids like elastic rubber bands or gym balls. All exercises are home-based. To increase balance and core stability, a subset of exercises is performed on shaky ground and/or one-legged. Exercise intensity, duration and frequency are individually assigned by a sports therapist. For each muscle group, a set of exercises of increasing difficulty allows for individual and progressive training adaption. Therapists can choose from an exercise database of approximately 150 different strength exercises with different graduation.
