Just a quick question. Diagnosised since August 2012 and would like to know can people wit MS use slendertone. You prob seen the adverts were lazy people (me) use a belt to help tone the stomach with little charges to tone muscles. I have used it before I knew I had MS.
Hi, can’t be a great help, I’m afraid. But thank you for reminding me I have a Slendertone ab belt, which I haven’t used for years, just needs new batteries. I’m going to get it out today & enjoy a bit of a tickle on my tum, which still has sensation. Can’t see what harm it could do.
I also have a power plate, which really helps - even just to stimulate the circulation on a bad day. These are used for MS therapy centres.
I also do yoga 4-5 days a week at home, which really helps relaxing, stretching and tone. I can now do my toe nails, where as before I could not. I fancy trying pilates next. At home again with a DVD. From ebay, of course, as I like value for money.
Good luck & do whatever you can manage without making any symptoms worse. A little at a time, frustrating, but really is the best method.
hi all,
just wondering if any of you tht have used the slendertone, noticed any difference in your tummies plz?
have seen the adverts on telly too and am seriously tempted as i find tummy exercises such as sit ups etc really hard. so if it works thn it would be a fab alternative for me to try

I thought Slendertone was some manner of diet drink.It does occur that maybe using such a device could precipitate the badly named MS Hug.

I can’t see the harm in using it tbh, although I think it may caution against use in ms if you read the instructions. Nevertheless I wasn’t put off and I bought one but it just didn’t fit tight enough around my waist to use so I sent it back, couldn’t find a smaller one either. Since you have it why not give it a go and just start with a little bit at first. Cheryl:-)
