This episode focuses on new, science-backed strategies to strengthen thinking skills, reduce stress, and even promote brain reorganization. 🧠 What's inside: I highlight 5 research posters presented at ECTRIMS 2025: Digital brain training boosts memory and reshapes brain activity. Multisensory integration improves with targeted cognitive exercises. Mindfulness-based group programs reduce fatigue, anxiety, and stress. Goal setting in rehab matters – and needs to be measurable. Digital testing may detect early cognitive decline, even remotely. 💡 These findings offer practical insights into how non-pharmacological interventions can support everyday life with MS. 📚 Referenced Studies All posters were presented at the ECTRIMS 2025 Congress.
