Treatment Options

Since each MS patient is unique, our integrative approach focuses on providing treatments and therapies geared specifically to each individual's needs.

Treatment plans may include:

• Cognitive therapy and testing with neuropsychologists
• On-campus physical and occupational therapy with services such as dedicated upper and lower extremity exercise programs, gait and balance training
• Pain management services
• Infusion services for injectibles (i.e. Solumedrol, IVIG, Novantrone) and plasmapheresis
• Symptom-based individual treatments such as trigger-point injections for headaches
• Interaction with a dedicated social worker to help with emotional adjustment and counseling including pastoral care if requested
• Continuity of care with Shands HomeCare visiting nurses

For more information, please contact the Shands Jacksonville Neuroscience Institute at (904) 244-3961.
