Physios for ME
From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history
Physios for ME formed in 2019 to seek out and share information about biomedical practice in ME, having found that the British approach of Graded exercise therapy recommended by the NHS was resulting in many negative patient experiences.[1]
Aims
Physios for ME to educate people about ME, and "stimulate new ideas in line with a biomedical approach" in order to improve physiotherapy for ME patients.[1]
