Celine Dion shares her approach to managing stiff person’s syndrome: “I train like an athlete”

Celine Dion is sharing her personal experience with stiff person’s disease.

In a recent interview with Vogue France, Celine Dion, a five-time Grammy winner, provided an update on her health. She shared that she is currently doing well, but acknowledges that it requires a lot of effort. Dion mentioned that she is taking things one day at a time. Last year in May, the 55-year-old singer was diagnosed with Moersch-Woltman syndrome, also known as stiff-person syndrome. This diagnosis prompted her to prioritize her health, leading her to cancel upcoming tour dates and temporarily halt live performances due to the impact of the disorder on her walking and singing abilities.

Dion revealed that she dedicates five days a week to engaging in various forms of therapy, including athletic, physical, and vocal exercises, ever since she received her diagnosis.

She said, “I constantly work on improving my skills, including my posture, my dexterity, and my vocal range. I have come to accept and embrace these challenges, rather than questioning myself. In the beginning, I used to wonder, ‘Why did this happen to me? What did I do wrong? Is it my fault?'”

Dion’s perspective has undergone a significant change since then. She now believes that she has two options: either she trains like an athlete and puts in immense effort, or she gives up and stays at home, indulging in her own songs, singing to herself in front of the mirror. However, she has decided to commit herself fully, both physically and mentally, with the support of a medical team. Her ultimate goal is to once again witness the majestic beauty of the Eiffel Tower.
