Physio-Exercise Classes
Since 2020, the Irish Haemophilia society have offered online physiotherapy-exercise classes to adult male members. This is part of an effort to encourage people with haemophilia and other bleeding disorders to be more physically active. The classes take place every week and are led by physiotherapist Mark McGowan at St. James’s Hospital, who has extensive experience working with people with bleeding disorders.
The classes take place every Tuesday evening on Zoom from 7.30 – 8.30pm. There is still room for more members to join! Please contact robert@haemophilia.ie to register to attend or call the office on 01 657 9900.
