Achalasia Action
146 members
Welcome to the Achalasia Action (ACAC) community, which has been set up to help people living with achalasia and spasms in the oesophagus. Achalasia is a condition affecting motility and the ability of swallowed food to reach the stomach because of issues affecting peristalsis, the muscular process that propels food into the stomach. Our charity Achalasia Action is registered with the Charity Commission for England & Wales (no 1187367) and runs a website www.achalasia-action.org and a helpline 0300 772 7795. We organise patient support meetings two or three times a year, either online or, subject to COVID19 restrictions, at the Hospital of St John and St Elizabeth, 60 Grove End Road, St John’s Wood, London NW8 9NH. ‘Achalasia Explained’ can be downloaded from the ACAC website www.achalasia-action.org/information-hub.html We also produce a set of YouTube videos: Understanding Achalasia (the first we published) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHWFGdKINpE&t=181s Diagnosing Achalasia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRjzFzwJgnQ&t=378s Treatments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXLJE4ezKfY&t=361s ACAC Charity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8jvPJZ3qwk&t=148s
