Lifestyle Changes for Ankylosing Spondylitis
We here at AnkylosingSpondylitis.net have connected with people from all different backgrounds, and with all different experiences. Some people who come to our community prefer to use biologics and other medications. Some people prefer to take the natural or homeopathic route. Some people like to use a mix of both.
But mostly everyone has shared that some lifestyle modifications have helped them, at least a little bit. Whether it's trying to manage stress, get better sleep, stretch for a few minutes, or something else--small changes in your day-to-day can be helpful in AS symptom management.
