People with MS can benefit from breathing pure oxygen at higher pressure. A higher concentration of oxygen can be absorbed, providing relief from symptoms.

Why we need your support

Harrow MS Therapy Centre is a registered charity and the only MS Centre to serve north west London and surrounding areas. All our income is provided by our members and supporters, but we never deny treatment to those who need it.

Therapies for MS

Exercising regularly will keep your body working to its full potential; our weekly exercise class at the Centre is designed for people with MS.
