Summary

This study tested how easy it is for people with multiple sclerosis (MS) to use a mobile app called MeTime MS. The app guides users through self-acupressure, a technique that involves pressing on specific points on the body to help with fatigue and pain. Ten adults with MS who had ongoing fatigue and pain used the app for 6 weeks and then shared their thoughts on how user-friendly it was.
