Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is a branch of physiotherapy that addresses disorders affecting the bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons. It is commonly used for patients recovering from injury, surgery, or those experiencing chronic pain from conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendonitis, or lower back pain.
Treatment techniques include manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, strengthening, stretching, and education on body mechanics to prevent further injury. Musculoskeletal physiotherapy aims to improve mobility, reduce pain, and restore strength and function.
This type of physiotherapy is essential for patients who require rehabilitation to recover from musculoskeletal injuries and improve their physical performance and quality of life.
