Spasticity is a common symptom of MS, and is adversely associated with quality of life. Seven individuals with MS who had severely impaired ambulation participated in this investigation. Spasticity of both ankles was measured with two clinical scales; the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and the Tardieu Scale (TS). The spasticity data were collected a total 3 times: 1) immediately following a 2 minute period of quiet sitting; 2) immediately following a 2 minute period of standing; and 3) immediately following a 2 minute bout of BWSTT. The acute bout of BWSTT resulted in no reduction in the MAS and Tardieu Scale score. These results suggest that brief exposure to BWSTT has no immediate anti-spastic effect in persons with advanced MS.
