Every person with MS , regardless of the severity of their illness and disability or ability, you need regular physical activity. Lack of exercise can lead to serious health consequences. The exercises not only provide a general sense of wellbeing, but also are important to prevent other problems associated with Multiple Sclerosis.
Stretching exercises and movement should be smooth, preferably patterned by a physiotherapist.

Flexibility exercises stretch the muscles and tendons while maintaining joint mobility. Stretching will help us prevent a decrease of mobility, stiffness, loss of strength and muscle tone. If you do not stretch, the stiffness may cause our muscles contractual and the joints are permanently immobilized.

We must increase the strength of the muscles. These can be strengthened through exercises with resistance exercises with rubber band as, lifting weights or pushing against a wall

Aerobic exercises improve function of the heart and lungs, make the heart and lungs work harder to increase exercise endurance. Walking, swimming and bike riding are some of the physical activities that develop resistance.

Balance training and coordination in maintenance favor of coordination and security of their movements very helpful in the patient’s quality of life.

Relaxation helps us reduce the physical and mental stress

Vestibular Rehabilitation is used in the treatment of patients with vertigo, imbalance and gait instability. It is known that the vestibular system participates in the processing of sensory and postural movements. Knowing many of these functions helps therapists determine the focus and effectiveness of its assistance strategy for training and restoring the function of the position.

The vestibular system can be compromised by infectious processes, inflammatory, vascular and traumatic. These conditions are reflected clinically in the signs and symptoms such as postural lainestabilidad, nystagmus, vertigo and dizziness. The activity carried out in day to day seem to be simple, however, for patients suffering from vestibular disorders, simple tasks like getting out of bed or go to the bathroom can be extremely difficult.

Vestibular rehabilitation is a therapeutic procedure, physiotherapy, which aims to restore balance to the patient, through mechanisms, substitution, habituation and adaptation. In this sense, their use has improved the quality of life and encourage healthy living guide the patient to the greatest extent possible, to control their symptoms

Geriatric Physiotherapy patient says that a person enters the elderly when they turn 60 year. Old age is not a disease, the elderly are more likely to be subject to crippling syndromes, of which one must distinguish between processes that are produced by the normal biological aging that result from pathological aging.

Physiotherapy in the geriatric patient should aim to maintain independence in mobility and the development of activities of daily living

Primary prevention is aimed at reducing the incidence of the disease, including health education and fitness. Once the pathology is produced attempts to limit disability through early treatment and prevent complications. In trying to reduce the irreversible disabilities disabilities through training, self-care and adaptation to the environment
regain maximum function possible we can get.

The old man in bed due to illness or surgery, we
as soon as possible prophylactic treatment and proper posture. The
Prolonged confinement to bed is the first enemy of physical therapy in the elderly.

These patients should take preventive measures such as:
Keep the patient in a comfortable position, which must be modified
regularly to prevent damage to the skin at pressure points.
Keep it clean and meet their physiological needs. Make sure you eat the right foods and sufficient fluid. Maintain respiratory function.
Protect your skin. Preventing complications involves the loss of functional positions.

The origin of the word exercise therapy or physical therapy joins two from the Greek roots, Kinesis (Movement) and Therapist (cure).
You can understand then to physiotherapy as a set of therapeutic procedures aimed at treating diseases through the movement, whether active, passive or through special machines (mechano)

Not to be confused with the Kinesiology kinesiology, as the latter is
study of movement, is not indicated for the treatment method is the science that studies human movement in all its forms and treatment through movement.

The passive physical therapy is to mobilize the movement in which eshecho by an external force to the patient, or oppose this or help;
while in active physical therapy is done by moving the patient forces
with or without the intervention of resistors or external aid.

Immobility causes a reduction in the functional capacity of an organ, and later generalized to multiple organ systems. The kinesiology enables the restore function, improve recovery and our general well-being.

Ligament injury

Sprains commonly known as “sprains” are injuries of the ligaments that hold the bone ends of the joints caused by a sudden movement that exceeds the functional limits without altering the joint congruity. When altering joint congruity is a dislocation. The severity of the sprain that is set with the ligament tear or not. Sprain almost always affects weight-bearing joints like the ankle and knee.

The clinical manifestations are sprains and localized pain, local swelling, warmth, swelling and decreased function. The pain of a sprain is severe and prevents sports for a variable period of time however, with appropriate treatment, ankle sprains and not reversed quickly become a chronic problem.

The inflammatory phase lasts strain between 1 and 7 days to 15 weeks
normal ligament has reached its pre-injury status, although
this period will depend on the distance between the edges of the ligaments.

Impairments, Disabilities and Handicaps

A disability is due to a deficiency, which produces a total or partial reduction of the capacity to carry out normal activity or within limits considered normal. Disability allows us to evaluate loss of activity.

The disability is the result of disability that limits or prevents the fulfillment of a role considered normal, taking on the characteristics and context of the individual. Similar difficulties may be more or less relevant depending on the socioeconomic context.

For example, Parkinson disease, such as pathology, causes a
Deficiency stiffness of muscle tone, the disability would be difficulty walking difficulty in self care, the disabled would be given by social disadvantage and disruption of daily activities to a greater or lesser degree depending on socio-cultural context.

One of the locomotor system symptoms and signs present themselves to establish the deficiency causing eating dressing disability and / or walk while his disability to be given by the loss of independence and mobility that may impair their social integration.

The objectives to be Through a rehabilitation treatment will control the pain and swelling, disminiur bone loss and joint damage. Increase or maintain the boundaries of maintaining joint mobility and resistance force the size of the musculature around the joint and whole body in general.

In the rehabilitation treatment of patients with juvenile chronic arthritis can use different therapeutic measures such as postural therapy and exercise through play and sports activities. Exercise is an essential part of treatment and help us to maintain joint mobility.
The application of heat or heat therapy used in conjunction with exercise and postural therapy. It must strive to achieve independent walking without aid.
The therapy should be guided by medical specialists in rehabilitation
