Living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) or any long-term health condition often means constantly looking for new ways to support your body, ease daily symptoms, and feel a bit more in control.

Over the years, I’ve tried and tested a mountain of products – some were a waste of time, but others? Genuinely game-changing. From gadgets that help with muscle stiffness and fatigue to tools that improve circulation and joint support, I’ve pulled together the ones that make a real difference in my life.

This isn’t a generic list – it’s full of items I personally use as someone living with MS and navigating the weird, wonderful world of disability.

Cold Feet?

I have just discovered the best things ever – heated socks! How did I not know these existed?? Well I do now and I am sharing these gems with my Purpl community.

They have re-chargeable batteries and you connect one to each sock, and there are four heat settings. There is an app but I haven’t tried that out yet. My feet are always freezing cold and I end up with chilblains in the winter so I am so excited to have found these.

Check them out on Amazon – Heated Socks

Ooh a Heated Floor Mat to use when working, this is even better and a new find. It might be £40 but I have constant cold feet so I am going to give this a try. Will let you know how I get on (added Dec 2025)

Massage Tools for Spasticity, Stiffness and Sore Muscles

Massage is a huge part of how I manage my spasticity and muscle tension. I’ve tried everything from professional physio tools to more affordable at-home gadgets. These are the ones I keep going back to:

Massage Guns:

• HoMedics Compact Percussion Massager
  This was the first massage tool I ever bought—and my chiropractor uses the same one. Solid, simple, and reliable.
• Zerolia Massage Gun
  A budget percussion-style massager that goes deeper into tight muscles and is great for regular use but also won’t break your bank balance
• HoMedics Pro Power Handheld Physiotherapy Massager Gun
  A more expensive model but a trustworthy brand and great for pain relief, as well as being particularly great for muscle pain and tension.

Rollers:

• RelaxaPulse Vibrating Massage Roller
  Ideal for releasing full-body tension and perfect for after a long day or post-exercise.
• Tumaz Foot Roller
  A cheap model that really helps with plantar fasciitis, plus it has a soft and gentle texture.

Leg Movement and Muscle Maintenance While Sitting

I spend a lot of time at a desk, and keeping my legs moving is essential to stop stiffness, improve circulation, and prevent muscle weakening. These machines help keep me active, even when I’m knackered:

• Morelax Under Desk Elliptical Machine
  Works your legs for you while you’re sitting – and as we know sitting all day is not good for our circulation or movement. This is a great device that requires minimal effort but gives great results.
• HoMedics Leg Exerciser with Easy Foot Touch Control & Remote
  Another automatic leg movement device that helps keep things ticking over when fatigue hits.

Back Pain, Stretching and Heat Therapy

MS can leave you feeling like your back is permanently locked up. These help me loosen up and manage pain, especially after long periods of inactivity:

• HoMedics Stretch Plus Stretching Mat
  I use this for around 45 minutes at a time. It’s a full-body stretch experience that feels like a physio session at home.
• Electric Heat Pad
  New portable heated back pad! – Electric Portable Heat Pad
  Brilliant for easing back pain, especially in winter when the cold makes everything worse. In fact, if you get cold whilst watching television, instead of turning the heating up – try this nifty gadget as it will warm you up super quickly.

Circulation and Foot Health Support

I struggle with poor circulation and swollen feet. These tools support blood flow, reduce swelling, and make a huge difference to my comfort and energy levels:

• RENPHO Shiatsu Foot and Calf Massager
  This is a premium option, but it’s absolutely worth it. It covers your feet, calves, and even your arms.
• Nekteck Leg and Foot Massager with Air Compression
  A cheaper alternative that still provides excellent compression therapy.
• Slant Board Calf Stretcher
  The budget solution that is perfect for stretching tight calves and reducing leg tension.
• Revitive ProHealth Circulation Booster
  A well-known device with lots of clinical backing for improving lower leg circulation.
• VYTALIVING Circulation Reviver
  A mid-range circulation booster that delivers noticeable results.
• KOSHSH Electromagnetic Foot Massager & Body Therapy Machine
  Budget-friendly, multi-use, and surprisingly effective.
• RENPHO Foot Massager with Heat, Shiatsu Massage Machine
  I’ve had this one for years—it just works, and it’s incredibly soothing. My advice is start off on the low setting as otherwise be prepared for pain as the massage can be quite intense!

Hip and Thigh Muscle Alignment Support

I get a lot of tightness in my inner thighs, which can throw off hip alignment. This knee support helps overnight:

• Sports Medica Ergonomic Knee Support Pillow
  Comfortable, effective, and great for long-term use.
•

Finger and Hand Support for Mobility and Comfort

My right hand has started to curl, making day-to-day tasks like typing harder. These tools help keep my hands comfortable and functional:

• Oval Finger Splints
  I use these daily—they keep my fingers straighter and allow me to type with less pain or strain.
• Compression Gloves for Arthritis
  Soft, supportive gloves that reduce swelling and help with dexterity.
• LifePro Hand Massager
  A brilliant tool for soothing the hands and fingers. We’ll be sharing a video demo soon.

Whole Body Vibration and Exercise Support

Exercise is still essential, even with MS. It supports the lymphatic system, reduces stiffness, and boosts energy. My go-to option at home is:

• LifePro Vibrating Plate
  Great for light exercise, lymphatic drainage, and general wellness support—without needing to leave the house.

Some Other Products That I Love

Whilst you are reading, I thought I would share some other products that I have purchased from Amazon

• Booja Booja
  My favourite brand for gluten free and plant based yumminess – honestly try their chocolate ice-cream as well, it is truly amazing and only has 5 ingredients – just shows you can make great tasting food without processed ingredients.
• 
• Rhythm 108
  Another great chocolate brand for those of us who are gluten and diary free – and also those who want natural ingredients. Tastes great too – I especially love their chocolate orange bar.
• When The Body Says No
  A must read for anyone who lives with a chronic condition, this book really made me rethink the way our bodies get impacted by stressors.
• 
• Duvet Buttons
  I am pretty sure it’s the ADHD that causes me to get frustrated by my duvet not staying in the corner of the duvet cover – and then my husband found these. Problem solved instantly.
