Yoga has long been known to benefit those with MS. Dr. Allen C. Bowling, a MS specialist on the Health Care Advisory Council of the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America has published widely on alternative and complementary interventions with MS. In his book: Complementary and Alternative Medicine and MS, he indicates:
Yoga is relatively inexpensive and generally safe. In MS, yoga has been shown to decrease fatigue. Although it has not been rigorously investigated, it is reported to improve depression, anxiety, pain and spasticity.”
The beauty of My MS Yoga is that this program provides an in home 
exercise routine that can be individualized to fit your needs to stretch and adapt modified poses. You can practice yoga and promote well being by adjusting My Ms Yoga to how you feel each day and to the particular ways that MS effects your movements and your body.

Instruction in utilizing breathwork to reduce stress and muscle tension is included also.
