When people living with MS think about rehabilitation, they often think of physical therapy. And, while physical therapy is an important part of MS rehabilitation, our conversation today goes far beyond physical therapy.
Doctors Deborah Backus and Brad Willingham, from the Shepherd Center, join me as we take a deep dive into next-level potentially life-changing rehabilitation tools for people living with MS.
Dr. Backus is the Vice-President of Research and Innovation at the Shepherd Center. She's a researcher, physical therapist, and educator with more than 30 years of experience in the neurorehabilitation field.
Dr. Willingham is the Director of MS Research at the Shepherd Center. Dr. Willingham's work focuses on the development of innovative technologies and strategies to advance neurorehabilitation.
We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
