MS Strength

It’s now the height of summer in the northern hemisphere and as people celebrate this 4th of July weekend, thoughts turn to keeping comfortable and cool. For people with MS, it’s always a good idea to avoid overheating to keep the nerves conducting as well as possible, but staying indoors on a sunny day can be a big drag. A great way to keep body temperatures down is to use portable cooling devices such as vests, neck wraps, and wrist wraps, depending on your needs. Cathy, at Navigating the Journey of MS, has an online multiple sclerosis store, The MS Shoppe, which sells a variety of these cooling devices. She opened this store with her husband to provide consumers with quality MS merchandise, including MS books, mobility devices, funny t-shirts, nightlights, and other relative multiple sclerosis items.
