This specialty class is designed specifically for clients with scoliosis, using exercises designed to optimise spinal alignment.  The small class size (maximum of eight participants) and delivery by a Specialist Chartered Physiotherapist, means focused individualised treatment, within a group setting.

Location: Orpington
Prices: £45 for 5 week course or £12 for drop-in
