Overview
What is Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy?
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is a specialized area of physiotherapy that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders related to the muscles, bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues. It aims to alleviate pain, improve mobility, restore function, and enhance overall quality of life for patients experiencing musculoskeletal issues.
Common Conditions Treated:
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Back and neck pain
- Shoulder, knee, or hip injuries (e.g., rotator cuff tears, ACL injuries)
- Tendonitis or tendinopathy (e.g., tennis elbow, Achilles tendinopathy)
- Muscle strains or ligament sprains
- Post-operative rehabilitation (e.g., after joint replacement or fracture repair)
In musculoskeletal physiotherapy, the goal is not just symptom relief, but also long-term improvement in physical function and prevention of future injuries through personalized care and exercise programs.
