Introduction: Long Term Musculoskeletal Conditions.[edit | edit source]

In 2015, a study on the Global Burden of Disease and the worldwide impact of all diseases and risk factors included back and neck pain, osteoarthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders in the leading ten causes of adult global age-specific years lived with disability[1]. The report stated that Musculoskeletal disorders continue to be a leading cause of disability worldwide” . It advised that “A key component of healthy ageing is to maintain mobility, and a key public health intervention recommended for improving health outcomes for all chronic diseases is physical activity.
