This describes a branch of Physiotherapy aimed at the rehabilitation of disorders affecting bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerves — tissues responsible for effective function of the locomotor system. Musculoskeletal Physio encompasses both sporting and non-sporting pain or injury, work-related pain, posture and basic mobility problems. The aim of treatment is to return or restore the individual to optimal function, irrespective of the level of function required. Whether we’re helping older people improve their ability to climb the stairs, or helping an international athlete return to play, both are equally important to the individual, and equally rewarding for us to achieve.
