Scoliosis Support Meeting Group
“ Empower For Self Help “
London Scoliosis Support Group is for people who suffer from scoliosis, teenagers and adults. You can come and talk about how to cope with scoliosis, share your story, talk about your ideas, and have friends.
We know how hard is to live with spinal deformities. Most people do not understand how difficult it is. So if you need any support and you want to talk to other people dealing with scoliosis please join us.
Support group meets periodically. If you need further information about group meetings, simply send email scoliosissupportgroup@scoliosisinlondon.co.uk
All patients who have scoliosis and parents are welcome.
