Abstract:
This pretest-posttest, descriptive pilot study examined the feasibility and perceived impact of an 8-week online adaptive yoga program on patients diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The program incorporated yoga poses, breathing practices, and relaxation techniques. Participants rated their perceived and actual symptom severity, overall quality of life, and perception of program impact, and contributed open-ended narrative comments about the program. All participants reported an overall perceived benefit from study participation and expressed enjoyment in interacting with other patients with multiple sclerosis. The program was found to be safe and rewarding for all participants.
