Hi Helen, I have been struggling with spasticity and spasms for a long time and recently my MS nurse referred me to a Neuro Physio. She has prescribed exercises but not sure they would be right for you... mine is mostly below the knee and in the ankle/foot - and causes immense joint pain :( You could try standing on your bottom stair (but please hold on to rails!) with your heels off the back and then drop them as low as you can for 10 seconds. This really pulls and stretches mine but primarily below the knee..... so may not be suitable for you x I sympathise!
