Sport is recognized as an excellent tool for the integration of minorities and groups at risk of social exclusion. The SPORT WELLNESS AND POLAND SYNDROME event, organized by the Italian Association of Poland Syndrome (AISP), aims to evaluate the risks and benefits of practicing sports in people with Poland Syndrome, a rare disease that affects the muscle-skeletal system of the thorax and upper limb. There will be interventions by specialists in the orthopedic, physiatric, neurological, radiological, psychological and medical-sports sectors as well as the story of the personal experiences of some patients.
If you too are a person with Poland syndrome and you practice some sport at a competitive / amateur level or you deal with wellness, write to segreteria@sindromedipoland.org to share your experience with us!
