In this solo episode, I'm getting into one of the most common (and most misunderstood) multiple sclerosis symptoms… MS spasticity.

If your legs feel heavy, your muscles lock up, or you've been told it's "just tightness"… this one is for you.

I'll walk you through what spasticity actually is, what's happening in your body when it shows up, and why it can have such a big impact on your daily life and mobility. 

We'll cover:

→ The Modified Ashworth Scale (and what those numbers really mean) 

→ The difference between spasms, cramps, and true spasticity 

→ Common triggers like fatigue, infection, heat, and stress 

→ What actually helps… including physical therapy-based strategies, stretching, medications, and the latest research on cannabis and electrical stimulation

Press play and let's get into it.
