Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centre
The Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centre (Lothian) is an independent non-profit organisation, set up as a registered charity over 20 years ago by a group of people with MS and their families and friends, maintaining strong links with the Association of Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centres (Scotland) - Scotland's other national Multiple Sclerosis organisation.
We provide practical therapies in a welcoming, friendly, supportive and positive environment.
These include affordable physiotherapy, yoga, reflexology, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (sometimes known as High Dosage Oxygen Therapy or HDOT) and other services.
