Sam and Kenzo from PhysiKits break down the science of neurological conditions and physiotherapy management into bite-sized notes and take-home tips. Plus some laughs along the way!
Is MS over-diagnosed?
What is the MS Hug?
Are eye symptoms normal?
Is head trauma linked to MS?
What new treatments have emerged recently?
To cap off our MS series of episodes, we thought it might be fun to try something slightly different and make a "RapidFire Q&A" episode based on questions we've received from you!

#26 Making the MS PhysiKit (What a Journey!)
Over the last 4 or so months, and around 13 episodes, we've focused our episodes on Multiple Sclerosis - covering the evidence behind its causes, the diagnostic journey, how physios approach its rehab, and much more!
We're about to move into a general neurological information phase, but before we do, we wanted to cover one more topic.
The MS PhysiKit is our 15-module course designed specifically to teach people how to understand and manage their MS based symptoms like a physio.
We've put a tonne of work into it, and have just updated it to include guided group coaching sessions.
So tune in today as we breakdown what the MS PhysiKit is, how we made it, and whether it might be useful to you.

#25 Flexibility? Coordination? Balance? How Physios Prescribe Exercises for MS (PART 2)
Aerobic, strength, flexibility, balance... did you know that these are all different kinds of exercises?
And as physios, choosing the right kind of exercise is just as (well, almost) important as exercising in the first place.
This is especially the case for people living with conditions like multiple sclerosis, where addressing certain problems through exercise depends on exercise prescription.
This is PART 2, where we break down the differences between flexibility, mobility, coordination and balance exercises for people living with MS.
