Musculoskeletal assessment

Musculoskeletal (MSK) health refers to the performance of the body, comprising muscles, bones, joints and connective tissues. Poor MSK health has a huge impact on people, their employers, the NHS and the wider economy.

Approximately 1.71billion people have MSK conditions worldwide. These conditions are the leading contributor to disability worldwide, with lower back pain being the single leading cause of disability in 160 countries (WHO data)

By law, employers must protect employees from the risks of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) being caused or made worse by work.

A spinal screening is an insightful assessment used which looks at your spine in greater depth to see if you require osteopathic care.
