Episode 419: A Whole-Person Health Approach to MS Care with Dr. Lynne Shinto

Some people living with MS adhere to a treatment plan based exclusively on what we might consider traditional medicine. Others opt for alternative treatments. And, still, others take a whole-person health approach, blending integrative medicine with traditional treatments designed to support an individual's mind and body.

Dr. Lynne Shinto joins me to discuss how a whole-person health approach can transform living with MS. Dr. Shinto is a Professor of Neurology and an MS Specialist at the Center for Women's Health at Oregon Health and Science University.

We're also sharing some encouraging news about funding for the National Institutes of Health in 2026.

We'll explain the research that has led to the identification of a new and quite different subtype of MS.

We'll tell you about this year's winner of the Rachel Horne Prize for Women's Research in Multiple Sclerosis.

The National MS Society's virtual program, New to MS: Navigating Your Journey, takes place in just two days. We have all the details!

We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
