Musculoskeletal physio is a branch of physiotherapy focused on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions affecting the muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves. This field encompasses a wide range of musculoskeletal disorders, injuries, and dysfunctions, aiming to optimise physical function and alleviate pain through evidence-based interventions.
Treatment modalities in musculoskeletal physiotherapy may include hands-on manual therapy techniques such as soft tissue manipulation and joint mobilisations, therapeutic exercises tailored to improve range of motion, flexibility, strength, balance, coordination, and conditioning, as well as modalities like dry needling, therapeutic taping and bracing.
Advice and education on pain management, posture, ergonomics, and injury prevention play integral roles in empowering patients to manage their conditions effectively and prevent recurrence. At Total Health Physiotherapy, the musculoskeletal system is our domain, that is where our expertise lie!
