"The MSing Link has helped me understand that I can effect change in my MS with exercise. Previous physical therapists who didn't specialize in MS encouraged exercises, but didn't explain the "why" behind each one [like Dr. Gretchen does] and didn't seem hopeful that I would see improvement after they had helped me a little while."

"Gretchen Hawley is an EXCEPTIONAL physical therapist for people with MS. Figuring out how to move better—or at all—is my number one challenge, and no one has come close to offering more practical and helpful suggestions than Gretchen. Gretchen really understands how MS affects movement and how to combat its effects with extremely doable exercises. Gretchen has come to our house monthly for about 6 months now and has added a ton of value with every visit. Her visits also are incredibly efficient and tailored to our needs. We open the door, visit a bit, and then get started, working at a pace that suits us for as long as suits us. Finding Gretchen really was like finding the needle in the haystack. Thank you, Gretchen!!!"

"The genuine interest Dr. G shows each of her members is impressive. She is inclusive to all members, whether they are MS patients or not, like myself. This is more than an exercise program, it’s a community of support to help each member to not just improve their physical symptoms, but their mental and emotional well-being too."

"I am so fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Gretchen. I was having leg weakness, leg fatigue, spasticity, trouble with walking long distances (unassisted) and so many more. I can not express, in words, how talented this woman is. The MSing link is a MUST HAVE! The exercises are easy and most of them you can do anywhere! The site is updated SUPER frequently so there’s always new content to explore. There are monthly guest speakers - such great learning! She listens to every, single symptom. She is AMAZING!! Thank you Dr. Gretchen for helping me get strong and believing in me!"

"I have made more progress (walking, balance, learning to stand from a wheelchair) in 3 months than in the last 3 years thanks to working with Dr. Gretchen. The attention you get is specifically designed for you and your abilities. Gretchen was specifically recommended by my MS physician. I can feel the improvement!!!"

"Gretchen is professional, knowledgeable, and very caring. If I'm having difficulty with an exercise, she finds a way to modify it so I can be successful. I appreciate her knowledge and experience specifically with Multiple Sclerosis patients. She understands how spasticity and fatigue can impact how I move, and knows how to design a program that works for me."

"Dr. Gretchen covers everything! Her exercises have helped me in more ways than I can count - from getting up after a fall, to strengthening areas that needed HELP ! They are all right on your PC - no long commutes - no traffic - no picking up germs from a hospital or "ride" - that has happened to me! You will NOT be sorry if you join! And, not to forget , the wonderful "speakers" that cover various issues !! She keeps you informed of all the latest MS Medicines ,too !! I used to see her at a clinic, so glad I can see her everyday !! Thank you, Dr., for this wonderful site!!"

I’ve been watching Dr. Gretchen on Instagram since 2016 and have had amazing success using her technique explanations to achieve my movement goals. Getting out of bed without falling, how to move my ankle when I walk, how to walk in general, all of this found online really helped how I manage my Multiple Sclerosis and improve my quality of life. Also she is truly bubbly and that joy shines through in her work. I think online physical therapy techniques are the future of our needs bc great doctors can be anywhere you are now, and MSING LINK is an innovative way to get the important info across the world. Dr. Gretchen is simply, the best.
