Musculoskeletal conditions affect the body’s muscles, bones, joints, nerves, tendons, cartilage, or spinal discs. They are one of the leading causes of visits to primary healthcare practitioners each year and can substantially affect physical and mental quality of life.
Low back pain is the most common musculoskeletal disease worldwide, affecting 577 million people. Most cases of lower back pain are mechanical. Mechanical low back pain results from weakness in the muscles surrounding the spine.
Arthritis is a common condition that causes pain and inflammation of the joints. Inflammatory arthritis (Rheumatoid Arthritis / Ankylosing Spondylitis) occurs when the body’s immune system attacks its own joints.

Lifestyle Medicine is healthcare that centres around alterations to patient behaviour to improve physical and mental health where the use of medicines may be inadequate. Factors of lifestyle which can influence health include:
Lifestyle Medicine can help in cases of musculoskeletal pain in various ways. For example:
Although lifestyle changes can improve health and well-being in many cases of musculoskeletal pain, some patients may require more rigorous medical treatment.
Rest assured that if our clinicians deem you to require care outside of Lifestyle Medicine, you will be referred for the appropriate treatments or investigations.
