Multiple Sclerosis is a life-threatening condition which can cause blindness, loss of all muscle use and many people are confined to living most of their adult life in a wheelchair. MS is a disease of the central nervous system attacking young adults in their 20's and 30's. There is little knowledge about the causes of MS and no known cure but with person-focused physical, social and emotional therapies our members can live a better quality of life.
The Therapy Centre is completely self-funding and grateful for your support.
As most of you will know that I have suffered from MS for 30 years now. I am fortunate that my symptoms could have been more severe given how long I have had it.
However, over the last 12 months, I have felt the benefits of having weekly massages and reflexology to ease the stiffness in my back and feet caused by my MS. This has greatly helped my overall fitness and well-being during what has been a particularly stressful period of my life.
The Wessex MS Centre has also greatly helped me with fundraising applications for the Bath and District MS Group, for whom I enjoy being their chairman. Many of our Group regularly visit Wessex Centre to receive various treatments.
