“…Our previous systematic review found strong evidence to support the use of exercise to improve mobility and function in multiple sclerosis (Campbell et al, 2015). In addition patient education has been found to increase disease knowledge in patients with multiple sclerosis (Kopke et al, 2014).…”

“…It facilitates an increase in physical function and independence by improving physical parameters such as muscular power, endurance and reducing fatigue [6][7][8]. Telerehabilitation is de ined as "the use of information and communication technologies as a medium for the provision of rehabilitation services to sites or patients that are at a distance from the provider" [9].…”

Background: Telerehabilitation has been identifi ed as an effective treatment that promotes exercise rehabilitation in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). Social support is recognised as a core element of such interventions. However further research is needed to consider the role and value of different social support domains. Aim:Review available literature to assess and synthesise the use and value of social support within telerehabilitation interventions for individuals with MS.Method: A narrative synthesis was conducted. A systematic search of included articles was conducted. Electronic databases were searched from inception to January 2017. Other search methods were undertaken. Evaluation and synthesis of included articles utilised risk of bias assessment and a 4-stage synthesis process.Main Results: A total of fourteen studies, involving 718 participants (505 female, 213 male; aggregated mean age 47.6 years) with MS, were included. Esteem support was the most frequently reported method of social support, followed by informational, emotional and tangible. It would appear social support can be benefi cial in assisting participants to adhere to treatment interventions. Visual feedback may be directly benefi cial to improve impaired balance in individuals with MS. A model for future interventions is provided. Conclusions:Social support appears to increase the adherence of participants with MS to telerehabilitation interventions. Unique fi ndings provide an indication for the direction and content of future interventions. Further research is necessary to ascertain the optimal types and frequencies of social support delivery and its effect on health outcomes for participants with MS.

“…MS patients can suffer from somatosensory, cognitive or organic-muscular damage and the clinical course is extremely variable and the life expectance is reduced [2]. Indeed, physiotherapy may be an effective form of rehabilitation, especially in the presence of progressive MS [3]. Environmental factors, such as exposure to cigarette smoke or vitamin D deficits seem to be associated with both pediatric and adult onset of MS [4].…”

Objective: To compare the effects of Pilates ® , a 30 s static stretching protocol and elastic bands resistance training on lower and hand-grip strength, rachis morphology, flexibility and body balance among RRMS patients.Methods: Twenty-two subjects affected by relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS, EDSS ≤ 6) were randomly divided into 3 groups whose members each performed 16 weeks of training. Stabilometry, rachis morphology, sit and reach, handgrip and sit to stand tests were performed three times: T0, after a month of learning training protocols; T1, after eight weeks of training; and T2, after sixteen weeks of training. Results Conclusion:Static stretching, Pilates and resistance training are useful to increase the autonomy in the daily life of people with MS thanks to the adoption of these three different training methods.
