What is musculoskeletal physiotherapy?
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy involves the assessment and treatment of individuals with injury or conditions which affect bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves. It is the area of physiotherapy that most people are familiar with. A wide range of conditions and injuries are treated by MSK physiotherapists including arthritic joints, back pain, sciatica, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, sports injuries, muscle strains, ligament ruptures and tendonitis. They are also responsible for the rehabilitation of patients following orthopaedic surgery.
Our MSK physiotherapists have extensive knowledge of MSK and orthopaedic injuries and conditions. They have exceptional hands-on treatment skills, as well advanced techniques such as acupuncture and ultrasound guided joint & soft tissue injections. Our physiotherapists use our top-quality rehabilitation facilities and equipment to aid the recovery of their patients.
How does Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy work?
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy involves assessing, diagnosing, and treating musculoskeletal conditions that affect the body’s movement and functionality. The treatment plan is individualised to address the specific condition, using a combination of manual therapy, exercise prescription, education, and lifestyle modifications. Our physiotherapists will work closely with you to identify the root cause of your pain or injury, offering hands-on therapy, stretching, strengthening exercises, and postural correction to optimize your recovery.
What are the benefits of Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy?
What can I expect during a musculoskeletal physiotherapy session?
During your physiotherapy session, your physiotherapist will assess your condition, discuss your symptoms, and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs. The session may include manual therapy techniques, exercises, posture correction, and advice on managing your condition. Your physiotherapist will work with you to ensure that you feel comfortable and confident throughout the treatment process.
How long will it take to recover from my condition?
Recovery time depends on the nature and severity of your condition. While some individuals experience improvement after a few sessions, others may require ongoing therapy over several weeks. Your physiotherapist will monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan to help you achieve the best results as efficiently as possible.
Can musculoskeletal physiotherapy help with chronic pain?
Yes, musculoskeletal physiotherapy is highly effective in managing chronic pain. By addressing the underlying causes of pain using techniques such as manual therapy, physiotherapy helps reduce discomfort and improves long-term function and mobility.
