Trevor and his wife started the MS Gym in 2017

He talks about NeuroPlasticity - ability to adapt and find other pathways to develop new pathways.

Also uses eye movements and the vestibular system with an emphasis on a ‘brain-out’ (rather than ‘body-in’) approach. It integrates the 3 systems - sensory, integration and motor - to create a nervous system that works well.

Find the ‘Minimum Effective Dose’ for movement - the correct dose for your MS ensuring you don’t overdose or underdose on exercise. Trevor has seen how the community he has built around the MS Gym has helped people, and given support when they face challenging periods.

Visualisation and its benefits there are 2 types: Deliberate Practise - which is for a specific purpose; walk better and Deep Practise - which involves taking the workout beyond completing each rep: connecting with each and every movement: interoception (where we begin to tune into what we are feeling inside our body as we are exercising). Using visualisation helps because the brain cannot differentiate between actually doing the activity and visualising it. 

Trevor shares his beliefs around our MS motivation .. hope which is backed up by proof, science, theory and education to enable people to become a student of their MS body. Taking action and responsibility using the tools and resources helps to give back control. To help counteract your prognosis and give you a sense of empowerment back.
