Multiple sclerosis rehabilitation
MS is a long-term condition, but what it takes away is not lost on a fixed schedule. After a relapse, after a period of progression, or when fatigue has taken over the day, a time-limited block of intensive rehabilitation can reset the baseline. Our MS programme is designed around individual goals, fatigue management, and therapy intensity that routine community care cannot reach.

Specialist rehabilitation for multiple sclerosis
In plain language
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the protective sheath around nerve fibres in the brain and spinal cord. It can affect mobility, balance, vision, sensation, bladder and bowel function, fatigue and cognition, and the pattern of symptoms differs widely between people and over time.
Why specialist rehabilitation matters
After a relapse, after a period of progression, or to set up the management of fatigue and spasticity, an intensive rehabilitation block can re-set baseline function and improve participation in daily life. Many MS patients travel for these blocks because the intensity is hard to access in routine community care.
The Evexia Plus approach
- Daily physiotherapy targeting strength, balance, gait, and spasticity management.
- Hydrotherapy in our three-pool complex, particularly effective for MS-related stiffness, fatigue and balance.
- Occupational therapy for energy conservation, fatigue management, and independence in daily activities.
- Speech and language therapy where indicated.
- Neuromodulation (HD-tDCS, Photobiomodulation) used adjunctively where indicated.
- Psychology support for mood, sleep, and adjustment.
- Neurology review with our consultant for symptom management alongside therapy.
- Indicative length of stay: three to six weeks per intensive block.
Suitability
We accept MS patients across the Expanded Disability Status Scale, although intensive admissions are most effective for patients with sufficient stamina to participate in daily therapy. We adapt the schedule for fatigue and we make heavy use of hydrotherapy where heat sensitivity allows.
