Income protection insurance could have to be claimed on with less regularity in future by sufferers of multiple sclerosis, if more sufferers underwent physiotherapy.

Physiotherapy can help alleviate many symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) such as muscle weakness and fatigue, according to a leading provider of Neurological Physiotherapy

PhysioFunction says that such exercises can help MS sufferers by strengthening those muscles that are not affected by the condition, which allows them to compensate for the muscles weakened by MS.

Clinical director for the body, Jon Graham says: "It can also assist in the early stages when there is only temporary impairment to the nerve cells."

He explains this also means those muscles that have been weakened can be strengthened once again through appropriate exercise.

However, since dynamics such as these vary in their effectiveness from patient to patient, income protection insurance would offer financial cover if such a condition leaves you unable to work. ADNFCR-3251-ID-19951020-ADNFCR -- 0 comments: - Post your own comment
