What is Musculoskeletal Medicine?
Musculoskeletal medicine involves the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the musculoskeletal system (bones, muscles, cartilage, ligaments, tendons and other connective tissue). Musculoskeletal disorders may occur as the result of injury or of a gradual onset condition such as osteoarthritis and will typically cause chronic (long term) or acute disability and pain.

Management of musculoskeletal disorders includes a wide range of treatments such as: patient education, pain management strategies, manipulative techniques, exercise and rehabilitation programmes, acupuncture, specialised injection techniques and medication.
