Hand and Arm Advisory Service

Hand and arm problems related to Multiple sclerosis can include:

Reduced dexterity
Upper limb weakness
Sensory changes in hands and fingers
Hand or upper arm numbness
Tonal changes
Tremor

Because they are hard to manage, these problems are often neglected in people with MS.

How we can help

MS can affect the hands and arms in lots of ways, which can be hard to understand and treat. We can provide a one-to-one session with a specialist neuro Occupational Therapist in our offices in The Vassal Centre, Bristol. This will provide the time and space to investigate your symptoms and advice on how best to alleviate them.

We also have various aids designed to alleviate problems with upper limb movements that you can try out.

This service is free of charge and open and free to anyone who has MS and is experiencing any these symptoms.
