One of the things we have learnt is the importance of exercise. It is 5 years since we ventured to China where Jill had her first stem cell therapy. The thing we learnt there was the need for exercise. Jill had acupuncture , massage and physical therapy each morning, followed by Voice exercises and then in the afternoon more physio. We have tried to maintain this regime ever since. As the MSA has developed we have had to modify the exercises to suit. Currently we do a leg and ankle massage after Jill’s shower, followed by a series of exercises which we can do on the bed involving , bridging , stretching and rotating. After lunch we do a series of exercises in the gym and a range of voice exercises using the idea of thinking loud.
This morning I was checking my emails and one that came through from the MSA chat forum. It made me add the above and include the following links to some important MSA exercises.
This the email I received:

I hope that the above will help as it has helped JIll. We also live by the moto
“USE IT OR LOSE IT”
We will be back at the weekend as I prepare for our trip.
