Posted on Sun, 28 Feb 2021
Question: I have a friend with multiple sclerosis. She has lost mobility in her legs and her neurologist is referring her to another specialist because they say there's nothing they can do to restore mobility. I want to help by giving her a massage chair. Do you think that would help her at all?

Brief Answer:
Massage chair will not be much helpful

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I don't think that the massage chair will help her restore mobility on legs or reverse the condition.
MS is a progressive condition and the treatment should be followed in order to reduce or slow down progression.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
